You know I'm ready for spring when I am making flowers. I'm so ready to see fields of bluebonnets, paint brushes, and poppies. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2693481719&category=34070&sspagename=STRK%3AMESSE%3AIT&rd=1 -- Saucy Glassworks Saucy on eBay...

I am so excited!!!!!! It's just like Christmas. I love Alex. I love Alex. I love Alex. I got the package of mags. I am so excited. They are great! Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Big Huge Hugs

Okay okay, don't get too excited (yet)! Most of the beads in this batch are PRE-Leah's class, made last weekend. (I've been slow, what can I say?) On Ebay, a pretty little sparkly frit bead, a pale purple frit bead with pearls set, a really yummy apricot frit set with pearls (my favorite), and...

Well, here ya go! This is a pick of some of the beads I did yesterday. I think Leah's rubbed off on me after all! http://www.desertdreameraz.com/ThursBeads.jpg The cobalt blue floral is 38 mm long and the lavender hollow (which needs to be cleaned out!) is 20 mm wide. I'll have new auctions up...

Speeding through here right now to mention that my auctions end Sat. afternoon. Don't have anything else ready to go for next week, so grab what I've got. Thanks a bunch. Juanita http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=489&item=2692905979 Spring Mosaic...

Hey, everyone! A day late but hopefully worth it. Instead of posting endless links, I set up a simple webpage with the pix from my class with Leah. http://www.desertdreameraz.com/Leahclass.html I apologize for the size of the pix, but I wanted to show the details. More pix after I get my day 2...

Has anyone ever seen or heard about this bead artist?? I may just never have come across the work before - she does beaded sculptural dolls - and sells the bodies and faces if you want to do your own... http://www.lidijafairbanks.net/index.html some of that stuff would take me 20 years... where...

I'm so hopping mad right now I could just spit. For anyone who's interested in WetCanvas Glass Art, I suggest reading this new threads imposing restrictions on the Swap Shop, our sig lines and any glass or equipment vendors. I have decided to leave that forum for good this time. For those who...

Okay, I just got done with one of the most productive and draining sessions at the torch I've ever had. It was one of those "breakthrough" sessions where things fall into place, and I ended up with a new style of focal bead that is the most physically and emotionally intensive piece I have ever...

I need to find a bead book for my wife (birthday, can't tell her....). What is the BEST book I can find? What should I look for?

I was looking at Helen's beads http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2693741464&category=34070 and remembering the Fonda/Clark that Beki Haley had up last week (that Pat Hauge beat me out of, the bitch, LOL). And I wanted to say to you all that I love sculptural flower beads. I...

Another thing my son had to tell me about was having the cops called on him. My dear precocious granddaughter is learning some good tricks in daycare. Like when ever there is something she doesn't want to do, she claims "it hurts" (eg to go to bed), "I feel sick". So on Monday he was taking care...
