Today was the first day of the Art of Closure class with Deryn Mentock and as the true over achiever that I am, I finished all the video's today. I believe there were 16 of them. I think there were actually 23 or 24 pieces. After 10 hours of work I have about 102 pieces but they aren't all finished.

My new button closures made with my handmade glass beads.
I had to bend the backs a bit to make them lay right so they could be photographed. |
Every time I take a class the notes I take end up someplace where I will never find them so this time I decided to make 1 of each piece and attach it to a card that would sit in the bottom of one of those cheap Hobby Lobby organizing boxes. I know now that when I run out of the links I won't be as tempted to use the last one because it's wired to the card and I have all the info right there to make another one. Having the info needed at my fingertips is really going to save so much time.

I burled out some of the info since I didn't think it would be right to share but I wanted to show you all the idea. I love to take classes and I think that this is a great way to organize class information so it is usable and at your fingertips where and when you need it. I may go back and do the same thing with a couple of other classes I have taken while I can still find the notes.
