“What's the good of living
if you don't try a few things?” ―Charles M. Schulz
As
I've said before there are all kinds of things to keep us busy in Marathon.
Today I tried something new...something I've never done before and it was a lot
of fun. Yesterday when I was at basket weaving a few ladies were talking about
going to a place called The Art Studio. The shop offers classes in pottery,
jewelry making, glass fusion and all types of painting and sketching.
Joella,
Vivienne and I were there to do glass fusion. It's a technique used to join
glass pieces together by partly melting the glass at high temperature. It is
used to produce jewelry, plaques, bowls, coasters and sun catchers. There is no
limit to what can be created and it was a lot of fun using my imagination. You start out by picking your project, decide on
colors and then use an endless array of glass products to decorate your
creation. I really look forward to doing this kind of project again.

The finished product...this was so much fun to do!
