Sister sent more info today:

Here's a link to Mango Beads, based in Barnstaple.
http://www.mangobeads.co.uk/teaching.htm
I've posted a request on the forum for any others, will email if there are. Let her know though that classes are a little few & far between, so to maybe expect to have to book fairly far in advance.


AND

Here's another!

She also explained that the forum had "problems" and disappeared, not sure if its up and running again yet.

Hope this helps. Smile

Bekki, I'm so sorry I missed this one! Yes! I would be interested in selling them! Though I'm not quite sure what I would charge, it would depend on the beads to a large extent. Let me know what kind of thing you'd be interested in.

Kathy - You are fantastic. I've emailed the lady in Barnstaple who does one to one taster sessions. Did you look at that website? The stuff is gorgeous! Say thank you to your sister for me.

Excellent - I've got beads to make up a cobalt blue one right now, but I've got to make my Mum some ear-rings first. I'll take photos of all of them.

I've booked a 2 hour taster session with the lady who runs Mango beads in Barnstaple. I'll be going on Sat 27th in the afternoon. I'm very excited about this. She sounds very nice and only 1/2 hour away! I've got a reading list, so need to go to the library to order books tomorrow. Hurrah! Thank you again Kathy and your sister!
