A couple of large lentils that I've had for awhile. I've become a bit attached to them, but they will be going up for auction soon I suppose.

This is the first week of July, our summer is just beginning with 90+ degree days and humidity above 50%. I'm thinking October evenings are sounding mighty good. These beads bring falling leaves and acorns to my mind.

I’m not new to lampworking, but I am new to the internet. I’ve been melting glass for about a year and a half. As you see more and more of what I have to offer you will notice the colors of my beads change from one end of the color wheel to the next. I like lots of colors and don’t really have just one favorite. Some beads I use only two colors, but other’s I may use five or six. Sometimes my combinations work, sometimes they don’t. Some of my beads are tiny while others are quite large. It pretty much just depends on what works when I light the torch and start melting glass.

I worked with stained glass for several years. That was easy. I just had to cut glass and solder it together. I took a break from glass for a few years and then I saw what glass in its molten form could become and became enthralled. I’m studying and learning as fast as I can, but gosh, there is so much to know and I can’t learn and experiment fast enough. Help me by leaving your comment either positive or negative. I need to know what you think.
