Finally, Something to Show......

Wednesday, September 28, 2011 at 10:11 PM
I finally got a chance last night to fire up my torch and make some beads.  It has been a few months since I've made anything.  I guess you have to start again somewhere.  

I thought the Mike bead from Monsters Inc turned out extra cute.  I've seen previews that a second Monsters Inc is going to be released within the next year.  I love the first movie and can't wait for the second one to get here.  I just hope I can start making more beads on a continuous basis now, versus there being no time.  Enjoy the beads....

Finally figuring out Clio.......

This silver striking glass, Clio, almost got the best of me.  After a few months of getting nothing but a brownish amber color, I was excited when I pulled this focal bead out of my kiln.  Finally, colors!!  My next goal is to make a complete set using this silver striking glass. 

Beads, Beads, Beads...........

I have been so preoccupied with getting through Christmas, updating my website, blog, facebook, and so on, that I have finally just got around to posting my first set of beads for the year on eBay, Valentine Bling.  I have a couple other sets to add this weekend.  It is just a matter of taking the pictures and posting them.  It sounds so easy and yet finding the time to do all I have to get done is sometimes overwhelming.  SIGH!!!!!
My first few sets I am posting will all have the dichroic(glitter effect) application that everyone seems to love right now.  I have been told dichroic was originally developed by NASA.  I have yet to actually look up exactly what it was used for by them, but that is on my list of "To Do's".  The type of dichroic I am using is a newer application of the product.  It is alot thicker and brighter then most other dichroic on the market.  I have heard it referred to as "pure dichroic".  Having used the older dichroic applications and now this newer type, I completely understand why they refer it as the "pure dichroic".        

Hopefully this year will I will be able to push myself to make more beads and increase the market of my website.  I will work hard and do my best; and hopefully, I will reap the benefits.  Wish me luck......
