So you want to see some beads, do you?

You have to get past a kitty photo, first. Ah, to be a cat on a ledge in the sun...

Here are some beads, just out of the ice bath, not sanded or finished yet. Took me forever to accumulate a pan to bake. Unique designs are not flowing from my fingers, but at least I have my fingers in the clay, right?

I love the little sparkle from the Swarovski chatons...

I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it!!

I finished some pieces, and had to photograph them in hand to show them off. It may take a few days for them to appear in my store (or maybe I'll get them photo'd and listed tomorrow, who knows!!) but watch for them!

Oh, an addendum to my excitement over entrecard dropping on my son's PC....

A couple of times, while using it, I encountered a glitch which caused the wireless connection to stop working. Now, I don't know if it was because of a virus on one of the entrecard sites or if it was a vista glitch, but I'm going back to my slooooowwww as molasses mac for the time being. My son can't afford to be without his computer!

(I'm so proud of him, 4.0 average over his first year in college!!! And now, he's in Calc III, Chemistry, and Physics....)

Dragonfly listings

I have a few dragonfly listings up on Etsy now. I'll be listing more tomorrow, I hope...

Dragonfly Whimsey

FLY dragonfly pendant

Antique Dragonfly on Gold pendant

Fresh from the oven!

Nope. Not muffins. Muffins would sure smell better while they were baking!!

Some spacers, focal pendants... Some I need to sand and possibly buff. I feel kind of stuck, so I decided to make some of my - er - tried and true pieces, with dragonflies and blossoms. Some have Kelly's dewdrops in them, some have Swarovski chatons (sent to me by Becca).
The square-ish focal with the blue butterfly is a custom order for my friend Deb, along with the little round basketweave accents.
I'm particularly happy with the way this one turned out:
Freshwater pearls were wired in before curing. I'm ready to do more of these!!What do you think?

Dragonfly Comeback

I just made a new dragonfly wing cane, and I'm not afraid to use it!!And there's a little dichroic dewdrop (KellyK) sliver in this one, although the flash kind of did it in, visually!
