New Gallery

These coloured glass Piupiu Wall Necklaces have made their way down to the South Island.  They will be on display at Kereru Gallery in Mapua, Tasman at a cool place on the wharf.  Call in and have a look if anyone is down that way.  (Piupiu translates to "skirt- like garment" and is a style I really like and have done many versions of).  These ones have a stainless steel wire detail.

Other news, cancel the words from my last post saying I will be part of the Waitakere Open Studio event as apparently I don't live in the right Local Board map area so am not eligible!  Quite annoyed about that!!

New Website!!!

Well its official, my new website is up and running, woohoo!
www.jmcleodglass.co.nz
It is so fancy it can now be accessed by a smartphone!

The year is whizzing by and dates and events are starting to clog up my diary.
We are yet to finalise the dates for the always very exciting group effort at my friend Justine Hawksworth's home but watch this space and I will put that up soon...........

I have just registered for the returning event, Waitakere Open Studios for the 14th & 15th of November 10am - 4pm.  This is run by the council who produce a map and interested people are able to visit all sorts of studios open for this weekend.

Also my annual xmas sale is always on the last Sunday of November - this year the 29th 10am - 3pm.  Functional glassware, garden art, sculpture, old stock and seconds, all welcome.

There we go a few dates for now and more to follow
