How have you been doing?  Are you working on any new polymer clay pieces?

Thanks for the link, Cornichon. I'll be looking into that as a marketing possibility!

Thanks for the kind words about Krobo Bead Necklace, Cornichon. Ameho Eunice (the beautiful girl in the photo) is one of
our Soul of Somanya jewelry artisans. She and I collaborated on this
design the last time I was in Ghana, but the bead and color choices
were all hers. She recently saved enough money from working with us to
be able to go back to high school for awhile (high school is not public
in Ghana--you have to pay your own tuition). We were very excited for
her! And she has a standing invitation to come back and work during
holidays and/or if she runs out of money and needs to start saving
again.

Wow, you changed your avatar!  I almost asked you to be my friend, AGAIN!!!

Show more work soon!  (I broke my camera. :(  )

Nice to meet you, Cornichon. Wow! Your beads are incredible! I'm going to visit your website tonight and look at more.

I got involved in starting this project when I was invited to go to Ghana and teach a group of the local bead makers how to make jewelry using Western beading techniques. It grew from that into a vocation. Take a look at our website at: www.soulofsomanya.net. It has lots of pictures of the people involved and stories about my adventures while I was in Ghana--I was actually made a queen mother while I was there! It's been quite a ride. I love doing it.

Off to work! Thanks for the friend request.
