I feel that I have neglected this site terribly during the last year. I've been trying to ignite the ArtFire site and the Facebook site, and we all know how Facebook sucks you in!

There have been many changes in the last year. I no longer work for the stained glass studio, and the other studio where I taught classes and I have also parted ways. However, I should soon be teaching classes at one art center (waiting for back ground check to clear) and have a meeting tomorrow with a second art center to see if classes there will be a good fit. This is the major reason for coming to update dA... I need an actual on line portfolio!

I have missed the associations I have made here and vow to do a better job at keeping up with them. If anyone is interested in more day to day things such as current sales listings and classes, I urge you to find CeltCraft Designs on Facebook and "like".

Two more wonderful notes... this past Friday, the Glass Art Guild of Utah show opened at Red Butte Gardens. I have several pieces in this show, and Saturday was notified that I was given an Award of Excellence for a piece of my jewelry. My first ever glass award... I am stoked!

Second note: Good Quill Hunting and I have collaborated on a piece. I send her some glass cabochons and she beaded an AMAZING neck piece with them. I'll update this journal with links for the cabs and the finished piece below.

Sorry for the absence... here's looking to more activity!!
