From Top to Bottom:

Alys Myers - "The color choosing process for each necklace takes longer than you might think.  I change them all around until the right combination jumps out at me, and sometimes change a small aspect at the last minute, as each one is unique."

Julia Groos - Halo Designs. Julia at her workbench

Katie Rowley - Katie is busy making ornaments and magnets this week.
