Getting Naughty with Jennifer Perkins

This saturday the ever so talented Miss Jennifer Perkins of The Naughty Secretary Club ventured north to visit to the Big D. Jennifer was the featured guest teacher at the Make Studio located in the Bishop Arts District, where she taught a funky fabulous jewelry making class.

I love Jennifer's use of color and her humongous pink vintage suitcase full of fabulous jewelry finds. After the class Jennifer had a fun book signing party for the release of her new book The Naughty Secretary Club, The working girls guide to handmade jewelry. I made the investment and added the colorful book to my collection. Not only are the pages covered with fun handmade projects, but there is a step by step guide for all the fabulous tricks Miss Jennifer teaches in her class.

You can purchase your book on her website or myspace.....so snap to it....get some crazy color combinations in your life....and start crafting!!!
