So let the holiday season begin!!!


 
Turkey dinner shopping done! I think I beat most of the crowd but it's pouring BUCKETS today! The weatherman said we will probably be measuring this weeks rainfall by the foot instead of by the inch. I think we got the first foot just this morning! Poor little Valentine, (my puppy), begs me not to have to go outside and potty. I try to share my umbrella with her.

I'm new to your blog and your designs--how lovely! I have a question--do you make the glass beads themselves? Or do you buy them already formed and then fashion and customize them? I'm interested--I don't even know how someone would make glass beads? My ex was from the Middle East, and he had all sorts of exotic and amazing glass beads and doo-dads.

Thank you for your interest Kris. I make the beads myself one at a time. The process is called lampwork and here is a link to what wiki says about lampworking if you would like to know a little more.

Your glass beads are really beautiful. I can't even imagine how much time it takes to make such a decorated bead. Well done.
