Some New Stuff
I haven't done much lately because it has been to darn hot to even torch. I've braved the hot garage a few times and made a few beads while sweat pours off me.
Here's a bracelet that is now for sale on Etsy.
Here are some more hearts.
The heart below was made on a 5/32" mandrel. I want to make more of these! Very cool!
I'm doing a Halloween swap on Lampwork Etc. These are some of my first attempts at bats, ghosts, and pumpkins. I still need some practice! Lots of practice!
I've been playing with frit (crumbs of glass) and love how it's working for me!
Here is a cool picture. Don't the beads look like the hovering in space?!

One afternoon, I was in the backyard hanging the laundry when an old, tired-looking dog wandered into the yard. I could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had a home. But when I walked into the house, he followed me, sauntered down the hall and fell asleep in a corner. An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out. The next day he was back. He resumed his position in the hallway and slept for an hour.
This continued for several weeks. Curious, I pinned a note to his collar: "Every afternoon your dog comes to my house for a nap. "
The next day he arrived with a different note pinned to his collar: "He lives in a home with ten children - he's trying to catch up on his sleep."
I cried from laughter
Sorry, if not left a message on Rules.

I love your beads! You are very creative!!
I noticed that you don't have a blogroll.
Are you interested in setting one up? Are you able to add a blogroll?
I am going to add your blog link to my blogroll. Check out my blog: http://glassart.wordpress.com and see if you would like to exchange links.
Thanks,
Christine

Love the new work. I love the bracelet. I started one before I burned up my little kiln. I'm glad it wasn't in the kiln that time. I have some projects I need to finish up in my new kiln but have been so busy trying to take care of my parents. Mom's surgery is tomorrow and she will need help for a long time. I don't have time for laundry, etc. much less play time! I will keep checking out your blog, but am going to quit the kilnglass board for a while. Just tired of the jerks spouting off. I used to tell everyone what a great board it was and learned a lot of things, even though I have been fusing for about 10 years. I hate all the "technical BS" that is on there now. Bye, Paulette
