I swear, the older you get the faster time flys by.
I am going to be doing this for friends that have asked for it
I am working on a tutorial for gourd beading. I am doing it frame by frame as I don't have a mobile web cam and I can't use my camera as I only have two hands.

Now that you see what I am talking about. I will post a materials list and then begin the tutorial'
Materials list,
Depending on the surface you wish to work on will determine how many sheets of beeswax you will want.
I have used gourds, Ostrich eggs, emu eggs but they are a little more fragile. I have also used a sword fish bill like the one below.
I would at least begin with about 10 -15 sheets of Beeswax natural.
A design in mind and lots of time.
Don't get in a hurry as it just won't come together.
Most of my students purchase one of my 'Thing-A-Ma-Jigs"
I will break off here and give everyone a chance to gather some of the materials if you are interested in trying this.
If you are interested in one of the Thing-A-Ma-Jigs you can purchase one from me for $5.
plus shipping.
Until our next meeting start your gathering and let me know if you are really interested in learning this technique.
Thanks
