One of the many highlights of attending Art Bliss this past weekend was exchanging handmade charms with 11 other lovely ladies. The theme was "Fall Into Bliss" and I think every woman captured this perfectly! There are charms created using some awesome mediums: ceramic, bronze, polymer clay, etching, wire wrapping, fold forming (I received two GORGEOUS fold-formed leaves - I absolutely love these!)...

Special thank-you to Dawn Gallup, who coordinated this event and presented us with a sweet, handmade art bag to carry our goodies!
I will re-live every wonderful moment of this past weekend when I wear my charm bracelet. Thank you so much, ladies!
Have a wonderful weekend and thank you for stopping by!
Patti - I couldn't agree more that the charm exchange was one of the many highlights of the weekend. I love all of my charms and that bag is the cutest! I love your bracelet. I am hoping to work with my charms this weekend -even though I love charm bracelets I am thinking a charm necklace which I could wear to work more. I know I will have fun with it whatever I do.
