Daytona Beach Clay Retreat Review PDF Print E-mail

North Central Florida Polymer Clay Guild

Daytona Beach Retreat  
October 13-15 2006

What a wonderful idea, what a lovely retreat,  what delightful artists, what a great time we all had!  Attending were members from the Ocala and Orlando Guilds as well as others like Dee De Carlo from Ormond Beach and the editor of Polymer Café, Joan Clipp, who is moving to the beach area.

Present were Diana McNamee, Carole Trachy, Lois Lin, Connie Ferreira, Pat Sistrand, Bev Moreau, Bette Richards, Rhonda Colcord, Janet Garber, Nancy Welch, Alice Townsend, Gayle Thompson, Carol Hess, Richard Bassett, Brenda Squires, Mary Jenkins, Joan Clipp and Dee De Carlo. Sally Murphy registered but was not able to attend as she went to Albuquerque to her daughter’s wedding.  She was missed.

We set up in the beachside room and went to work.  Everyone worked on their own projects for a while and visited with others.  Our first demonstration was by Lois Lee Lin
Who showed us how to put little slices of canes on the inside of tiny bottles in the fashion of ancient Chinese opium bottles.  She created her tools herself from the wires of Chinese take-out boxes.
