PPD 2011 - Everything you need to know (well almost!)

At last, at last!   Here are details of the new polymer clay event to be held in the Midlands .  Several things have held us up with this announcement but now we are “hot to trot” and here is the information we have been promising to post.

 

We have a new teacher to the UK , Stephanie Kilgast who will be killing two birds with one stone teaching miniatures which work well as jewellery.   Have a look at her marvellous website to see just how talented she is. 

 

Donna Kato will be with us with a new section called “Ask Donna” where you will be able to ask Donna about any problems you have with your clay work.   Donna will also be giving a presentation about Craft Edu to tell you how to make the most of the lessons on this site and also how to present lessons and earn money 

 

Leslie Blackford will be here to show you how to breath character and life into clay.  Alison Gallant will teach screen printing on clay using her unique and new to the market screens.  Natalia Garcia de Leaniz has a lovely new bracelet she is going to teach and Christine Dumont also has something new to show us with wonderful beads she has created. 

 

As well as this, there will be numerous demonstrations for you from Jema Hewitt will show the mysteries of Steampunk, Dani Torres Mancera who will surprise us all, Valerie Wallace  will demonstrate her Celtic Canes and Frances White  will show techniques with alcohol inks, lots to learn.  We will also have a fun evening at which we will swap our “inchies”, and a dinner for us to enjoy each other’s company.   Lunch and refreshments will be provided each day and this is all for £275.00 or £250 if you book and pay before April 30th.

 

As ever, Cathryn and Ruth will run the shop for anyone who wants to bring finished work to sell.   There will also be everything for sale that a polymer clay addict could wish for, from clay to cutters, findings, screens for printing and much more.

 

The venue will be the Genesis Family Centre in Alfreton and we hope to see you there, there is plenty of accommodation near by and good car parking as well as a shopping centre within easy reach.
