Leslie thank you so much for the fast shipping and WOW, these frits look amazing! :) I've already set my alarm for 4AM tomorrow morning so I can go out and torch before it gets beastly, lol. I'll have BOC beads coming back to you ASAP.

Oh, I love the copper cutouts too, really cool!

Forty more coming to ya, Leslie....

Got mine too, and just got done popping them into the kiln. Yeah! What a fabulous cause and a generous offer, Leslie! Mine aren't the best, but they are made with love.

Ditto :D Having lots of fun though! I think I have 9 more out in the kiln (I'm slow) today and hope to work on more tomorrow if this cooler weather holds. It was actually cloudy here today! So strange to sit and lampwork in the garage in the afternoon, I've almost become a vampire lampworker because of the heat.

I am playing when I torch, but I've only gotten to 2 colors so far...but they are so beautiful! I'm hoping next week I can sit and play some more with the rest!

Leslie, when did you need the beads by? Also, did you want our "notes" on how we made the beads? (mine are all real simple, so it would be easy! :lol:)

[ThatFritGirl]

Notes would be great if possible, but not absolutely neccessary - if you forget or are not a note person no problem, at least we have beads & examples of what they look like!

I send out beads as soon as my little boxes get full enough, so please don't feel pressure to meed any sort of deadline. I'll keep this challenge going as long as there are people interested in doing it and as long as the kiddos need the beads. If you miss one box, there will always be another going out after it!

Ah, my Dear, your name was on last month's list! Your name goes on the list for the drawing for the month that you order, but it goes on EACH TIME that you order during that month :)

Beads are starting to come in! Pat, I got some from you and the kiddos will LOVE them!

[pittypat]

Well, put me down for some more by Friday...I have done them all and should be able to clean them tonight and send tomorrow. I will get to ordering then!! And I will answer your PM later today...thanks so much, Leslie...

I only have Green Luster left to test :) All of the other colors have been simply gorgeous so far!!

Just wanted to remind peeps that we can't have exposed silver glass that can touch the skin (found that out in the official thread). But it's good practice for my encasing! :)
