Certifiable

I am in Richland Hills taking a certification class at 10 Seconds Studio. This is going to be a fun 3 days. There are 3 store owners ,sales reps, a Club Scrap Designer, and "people".This was using PMC, a precious metal (silver) clay,pvc pipe and playing cards.We all made some jewelry that Cheryl will fire and do other mysterious things to tomorrow and viola wearable art! We had a super lasagna dinner,complete with heart shaped brownies. Tomorrow we have two classes and Sat. is filled with tests! There are so many things we can do with metal and I am sure we will all think out of the box.
Getting here was a challenge. I am directionally challenged, even with Jill giving me directions. There are multiple 820 roads going N S E & W and I think I found them all. Lost was among several words I used the hour I was checking out each 820! My hotel is so new is wasn't on my GPS (Jill) so I ran into 10 Sec., Cheryl and Megan were nice enough to help me get the 1 mile to my hotel! I am sure some of you have seen the Uncle Sam dressed tax man on the side of the road, holding a sign, trying to get you to come in and let this company do your taxes, don't even try to talk to that man. I asked him if he knew where Ft. Worth Mall was, not because I was going shopping, the hotel was close to it, and the poor man was so drunk he had no clue even where he was. Just the company I want to do my taxes. I found my hotel, checked into my room and promptly walked out the door, leaving my key card in my room! What a day!

AWESOME that you are getting 10 sec certified. Not awesome that driving in the big D made you certifiable. Anxious to see what you learned. Take lots of pics.

Sounds like you are learning some interesting stuff! And I'm glad you were ultimately able to find the place! :)

Hope the rest of your trip goes smoother! I ALWAYS get lost even with my GPS so you are not alone with being directionally challenged! Can't wait to see what you made
