Tuesday, March 19, 2013 by Cathe Holden

I’ve been invited to teach at the spectacular Spellbound event this November in Southern California, “…a truly beautiful and uplifting weekend of art and inspiration.” I will be instructing along side some really amazing talent: Kaari Meng, Kristen Robinson, JoAnna Pierotti, Terri Brush, Pamela Huntington, and organizers Debbie Murray and Shea Fragoso– the mother/daughter design team behind A Gilded Life.

The venue is incredible. Spellbound is held at the historic Langham Huntington Hotel in Pasadena. Registration for the event is now open. Here is a montage of just some of the classes.Here are my projects:
