Greetings everyone:

My name is Laurie Porter, I'm so glad we have this list. I have been making 
and selling my hand crafted jewlry for the last 12 years. My main focus is 
beadwork using tiny sead beads woven together to make  necklaces, bracelets 
amulets and bead amulet bags. My designs are inspired by African and native 
American bead weaving techniques both on a loom and off loom stitches.  I 
also do some stringing and wireworking with gem stones, Austrian Crystal, 
decroic glass, lampwork or fernis glass, cloisenay and fire pollished beads 
of all shapes and sizes. I have not gotten together a website yet  but I 
hope it will be in the near future.  I sell my pieces along with my other 
products at farmer's markets and craft shows around Madison Wisconsin. The 
other products I sell for  my business called WildLife Preserves My partner 
David and  I produce over 75 varieties of jams, jellies, preserves and 
butters made from scratch as well as a number of seasonal dry goods 
including smoked nuts, wild rice blends, spice mixes and dried shiiatake 
mushrooms. We also make pure Wisconsin maple syrup from a stand of old sugar 
maple trees in Northern Iron county. I look forward to getting to know you 
all on this list, and I hope we can organize a crafter's division.

Peace,

Laurie

Peace,

Laurie
