"Behind the Brooch"
I have always thought that the back of a jewelry piece is as important as the front. If you feel the same way, consider sending images of the front and backside of your brooches to Lorena Angulo asap. Lorena is looking for images to place in a future crafthaus online exhibition!

Thank you so much for the kind words regarding my work and thank you so much for bringing my work to Catherine's attention. I could not be more pleased and thankful to you. I do feel terrible that Catherine and I had such terrible communication in the beginning. I was only getting half of her email!! I about passed out when I found out that the show was so immediate, but I pulled it together--barely. Catherine has been really helpful and patient with me--considering I rarely sell my work. I usually hold on to and keep showing it. I am hoping to attend next years SNAG--I hope that we can get together. Warmly, Renee
I admire york work, thanks for befriending me!
