Week Twelve: Kristie Roeder

Our boxes - now heavier than many a small child! - are traveling back East this week, to Pennsylvania and the home and studio of Kristie Roeder. Kristie is better known as Artisan Clay to those of you who follow her blog and work.

Before we ever asked her to join The Best Little Bead Box project, Kristie had already been working on donations for Beads of Courage, so she was especially pleased to be one of our Round One beaders:

"I am very excited to be a part of this project.  I can't wait to see the great things that everyone is going to contribute and to learn more about the artists involved.  I have made some special clay beads inspired by the projects that Beads-of-Clay offers to children in Hospitals and I can't wait to share~~~~ " 



Kristie is the last stop for our boxes before they return to their staring point in New Mexico. It will take us a few weeks to get all the wonderful treasures separated into batches, photographed, and listed for auction. We will, of course,  keep you updated.  In the meantime, look for Kristie's account of her time with the boxes later this week.
