What I've been up to this week













Well, this is what I have been up to for the past week! I have a couple of places that might want to carry my jewelry, so I have been trying to get some made!
I am stressed though, as I am behind on the Pavillion and I have a comission painting that needs finishing. I also still haven't finished my pumpkin patch watercolor either!
Hope you are having a great week. Cheers, Tonya

Kiln Fairy delivers!


Here are some beads just out of the kiln before they have been taken off the mandrels. Three hollow ones and the rest are pressed with the Zoozii's Large Straight sided lentil plus press.

I have been making glass beads for about 10 years or so. I learned from Marilyn Bennekers, an Artist in Slidell Louisiana.

I have reciently gotten a new Bobcat torch and am making more and bigger beads than I used to. I try to make beads a few times a week.
