Interesting Info

Rachel a fellow beadmaker has some interesting info on her blog about the difference between mass produced lampwork beads and artisan made beads. It's really worth a read!

A couple new capped/cored beads this week, both in my Etsy. I am really loving the look of these!

Flaming Hot

I've have been so busy I forgot about the Flaming Hot blog group! Their blog topic is You can have any talent, ability or lifestyle you wish. What would you be?

That's a toughie! I pretty much have my fantasy talent, at least I think I have talent? I love glass, can't think of a better thing to do! Maybe I'd love to be a glass blower, I am always entranced watching them work. I have a Chihuly DVD I watch over and over!

In the Night Kitchen

My Edaphic capped bead was featured on "In the Night Kitchen" blog! Have a peek it's a great blog!

How does your garden grow?

Very well thank you! With all the sun and steady watering my garden is HUGE!

Sidewalk Flowers

I spent this weekend at the Puget Sound Bead festival with Kristi of Brokaw Beads. While the show itself was a bit slow we had a fantastic time! Lots of laughing and fun!

We stopped on the way home at the Tacoma "Bridge of Glass" that had alot of Chihuly work, WELL worth seeing. I was so amazed at all the glass I got a neck cramp from looking up for so long!

On our walk back to the hotel one night we saw these little flowers growing out of the sidewalk all perky and happy, we just had to take a picture!

I've spent the whole week madly making beads for the PugetSound Bead Festival. The Metchosin Farmers Market is sunday and I hope to get into the garden in the afternoon.

Lots of new beads in my Etsy!
