For those of you who did not catch the LB o J'zazz feature on Al Watan TV you can go to the link. We were interviewed by Hessa Al Loghani whose main question and focus to us was why would we teach and share our knowledge vs. monopolizing our talents to sell finished pieces?
This debate of knowledge and technical know how monopolization is rampant in our region and goes to show just how much more we have to promote adult education, personal development and experiential learning. LB o J'zazz founders promoting learning arts and crafts
You will easily master this stitch that looks like a DNA helix ; you will want to use the Spiral Stitch more than expected as it is a very versatile off loom technique. We will start with the long earrings and then move onto the bracelet.

After the economic meltdown of retail giants at global and local levels it is high time for people to realize the potential of the power of small businesses and buying handmade. In this vein, LB o J'zazz will be featured on the popular program on Al Watan TV this evening called " Banat wu Bass".
Although "Banat wu Bass" has an exclusionary feel to it in terms of their subject matter, for the mere fact that the managing partners of LB o J'zazz happen to be ladies, LB o J'zazz offers classes and workshops to women and men alike.
We welcome your comments and feedback as we will also be seeing it for the first time tonight with viewers at 9 PM and there will be a rerun at 11 PM this evening also.

While I was in Paris two Aprils ago, I stumbled upon Six Lucite Styled Flowers that were the last hidden in a cookie jar in a famous crafters shop near the Notre Dame. Quickly, like a kid stealing cookies from that jar, I wiped the shop out of the last pieces. Along with the wavy, Victorian feel of the Serpentine Stitch and the bright vivid colors of the Lucite Flowers became the inspiration behind this one time only class.
Six kits not to be repeated each a different color and palette that includes beautiful Czech Crystal, Seed Beads and Pressed Glass. Two Kits / Seats remain available at this time.
