Mood:  quizzical

OK, I've changed my mind about the set below.  Not only do the two bigguns go in the junk pile, but all the rest too.  BLECK!

  I really did make some pretties today.  I've decided that glass is a lot like gambling...you "win" just often enough to keep you coming back.  My new ones are nappin' in the blankie, so you don't get to see them until later.

Someone else is nappin' in the blankie too and she cute as a button.  My Sha

Here's the second set for the day.  The fabric is one of the pieces on a favorite purse of mine...delisch.  Again, got close with the beads.  Starting to jump around size wise...time to make some fritters!

Happy Holidays to all!  Another inspiration day for me at the torch.  This first fabric is just yummy.  I got close, my focal is kinda dorky, but I get a beginners pass for a while, right?????

Today I tried to work on getting inspiration from my eyes on the beadies.  Size and shape are starting to come more regularly and will eventually become instinct.  I picked a fabric that I like and tried to make beads, regardless of size and shape, from that inspiration.  I'm happy with my first attempt and really liked this exercise.  I'mma do it again.  Oh yeah, I'm a fabric junkie too...so this could go on forever...lol.

A relaxing week at the lake spawned this watercolor.  Peaceful, huh?

Chablis is one a patchwork bracelet with an extender to make it a choker.  This was a very fun one to do at a very special Christmas bead in.

I had to make a little momento of my first lampwork beads.  It's just a silly, but I'm tickled with my third days catch of the day.
