Super exciting and terrific news! The secret is out...Susan Lenart Kazmer's new line of jewelry making elements called Industrial Chic is now making it's debut in Michaels stores! It's been at least a year in the making and it's finally here. I can't even tell you how thrilled I am for Susan, and to be promoting this line!
You can get a look at the line here, on the Michaels website. I promise, you won't be disappointed. In fact, when I first saw the elements in person, I thought they'd come straight from Susan's workbench...they're that good.
The pieces are wonderful to work with. The real beauty of the line, aside from the fact that it's incredibly unique and...well...chic, is that you really only need three tools to work with it: chain nose pliers, round nose pliers and snips. It's almost instant gratification with a one-of-a-kind, this-was-complicated-to-make look.
On the Michaels site, Susan's got some great demo videos posted (here) and some how-to instructions (here.) Make sure you check out the Objects and Elements blog too, as we'll be doing some blog hops and other fun stuff, including a few surprises, to celebrate the introduction of Industrial Chic!
Congratulations, Susan!
Will this line ever be available online? Michaels has their closest store to me at 63 miles away. I am sad....

Going to my Michael's today to check it out. What's the scoop on the College Station class? Do you have a link to it, yet?
Thanks, Mary

I literally flew to my neighborhood Michaels yesterday, only to find out they are not carrying any of it yet. boohoo. Michaels should know that West Palm Beach, (South) Florida has many jewelry makers and aficionados of this style. Maybe you, Deryn would be so kind as to come spread some of your creative magic down this way sometime soon. PLeeeeaaaase!
