Well I was on the torch for about two hours and I have two broken beads and about 10 nice ones, including 3 hearts.....of course my daughters think they are all lovely and want to keep them....me I think they are a good start for being off the torch for so long... I will try to take some pictures and get them up...
I worked boro and soft glass yesterday...Gosh I love boro....but I need a bigger torch..or more patience...lol.....but I am going to try to really make some nice soft glass beads because I think that in the marketplace they are more desirable.
It is amazing how just sitting at the torch can melt away...anxiety and the day to day stress of life...maybe the music helps too...anyway it is just what the doctor ordered.
Today I am going to try to make some colorful sets for a wet canvas donation for kids iwth cancer along with hearts and butterflies. Wish me luck
PS I ordered a third kiln for the studio http://aimkilns.com/assets/images/96j.JPG and I am going to try to find out if I can use my first kiln as a crucible.
Kiln created paperweight
