Emotion Bead SetsPosted by Ironmoutain01 on 11/3/2007These are attempts almost to, I guess you could say - with appologies for the pun - control my emotions.
I was asked if I ever made the emotion beads in a smaller scale, to which I replied that I had never thought of it but that I was willing to try. I was then asked if I *was* able to make them smaller, understanding how they were made in the first place, did I think that I could make a small set. A challenge for me? DEFINITELY. A lesson in control? Probably much needed... and opportune... Images

These beads average 3/4 inch to 1 inch in lengh and are my first. I didn't know If I could "shrink my feeling" down from a larger scale to about half scale. And then to repeat it but not to repeat it!!! To hold a feeling, let it touch me but not control me. To Let it out just a little at a time in short, controlled bursts - I'm not so good at that (rueful chuckle). |

Iron Mountain Jewelry is a one person glass studio in sunny (sweltering) Bulverde, TX, in the hillcountry just north of San Antonio. I'm a self-taught lampworker who works full-time in an Interventional Radiology Lab and only get to play with hot, moulten glass when I've been good. Or when I can run fast enough to get away from my department. I've been playing with glass now for about 2 years, but if you add up the actual time, it's more like 13 months.
