HAND-CUT CREATIONS By MEREDITH CREEK Contributing Writer

energy. Spending her days inside the classroom teaching Whiteoak High School students about computers, yearbook publication and service learning activities, Juillerat spends her evenings inside her own glass workshop. It is there that she makes a variety of hand-cut, hand-crafted jewelry local residents have come to know as Kreations by Kara. “I have always enjoyed handmade artsy items and at the Southern State (Community College) south campus there was a jewelry artist, Kristi Hall,” Juillerat said. “I ran across her pieces and thought it was really neat and that I needed just one more thing to get into.” After taking a few of Hall’s classes, Juillerat admits that jewelry-making was “pretty much addicting.” Juillerat grew up in Sinking Spring and attended Peebles High School. While in school, she said she enjoyed the creative side of her art and yearbook classes despite not being able to draw. Taking the jewelry-making classes years later, she said “I got to be back into art classes with the creative side and even though I’m not good at drawing, it doesn’t matter… I’m still considered an artist.” See HAND-CUT I Page 7

Jewel Diane Harris is the latest winner of the "find the shopping bag" contest. She won a $50 gift card to Vickie’s Restaurant. Look for another hidden bag in this week’s Shopper. Please note that bags that are on a Highland County Shopper logo – ones on the front page and in sales representative’s ads, for example – do not count. Last week’s bag was on Page 5.
