Facebook Update

New name.  Same content.

In order to further prevent confusion among my two Brenden Designs Facebook pages my original Brenden Designs page's name has been changed to Brenden Designs Classes.  My newer account is called Brenden Designs Gallery.  I am hoping this will help define each pages content more clearly.
