We awoke this morning to about 5 inches of snow on the ground! It's not even Halloween yet. Maybe it was the weather, maybe it was putting away the summer hobbies... but it sparked some motivation for Beth and I to get back into the glass studio. It's been a few months since we did any real lampwork due to summer schedules and activities. We are a little rusty, but after a few practice beads it's like riding a bike.
We've had several requests for Euro-style beads (Pandora etc). First we have been requested to produce a handful of breast cancer awareness beads. I have also have requests for sculpted pigs, cows, turtles, and dogs. It seems the fine detail stringer work is in high demand.
With the kiln stocked to the hilt, we take a break to play with the kids in the afternoon, and maybe even
make some paper to fold!
