Nice work guys!
I'm loving that vase, cosmo!

Dang it Cosmo.
You and your awesome fuming.
I just want to yank that knowledge outta your
head and slap it into mine!

Love the shells Chrissy! Beautiful!!

Christina--WOW!! What a way to start a thread!!WoohoooO!

Cosmo!-your marbles are always amazing--really nice!!

Christina, what a cool design! I love it!

Cosmo, luscious marbles! I would love to try a marble some day! :)

Love the seahorse too.

That vase is gorgeous.

I had hoped to post a pic of a bead with FF, but all I got was yellow. I went back to read the FF thread and I'm gonna try again. Anyhow, here's something I took out of the kiln yesterday.

beautiful stuff!

I LOVE that vase!

omg... what a start! I love that vase, too, Mr. Cosmo

my humble little swizzles of late... this is Green Flambe'. Loads of color and all I used with it is clear... flame struck...

Yummy

oh and did some free form pendants... I think the last one is my favorite..

Christina - Love the seashells.
Cosma - Awesome marbles and vase.
Tracey - What a sweet little heart.
Kay - The color on the top of the swizzle sticks are really cool and the pendants are great too.

Here's a bottle stopper from me, it's 6 inches long total.

Tracey-It turned out beautiful! :-D

Kay-WOW--gorgeous colors on the swizzle sticks! =D> I like the pendants too!

Aimee-WOW!! That is a big beautiful stopper! I lOve that color! Is it for a wine bottle or a big vessel?8)

Very beautiful work everyone!
Your marbles are awesome Cosmo!
Im still working on my flower implosion pendants :)

oooooohhhhhh I love the last one!!!!

Beautiful swizzle sticks Kay and I love the loose frit!

thanks, Renee.. it is actually salt! But you just gave me an idea!!!

That's what I was thinking too. Put striking color frit in there and then run it through the kiln a couple times...

OOOOoooooo beautiful stuff here . . .

Two hearts for a custom order:
(sorry the pics are so big, sheesh!)

Voic--nice pendants and so many! :-D Yummy!

Lana--your hearts are gorgeous! I love the detail!

Christina - Love the pendants...totally yummy!
Cosmo - Fantastic work. You know my fav is the vase ;-D
Tracy - Pretty heart...having trouble remembering what FF is????
Kay - Those swizzlers are just luscious! Wonderful color!
Aimee - WOW...now that's a stopper, GF. Gorgeous!
Voic - I'd been wondering if you had gotten time to torch lately. Super implosions...gotta' go with that last one as a fav too. ;-)
Lana - Those hearts are just beautiful. I especially LOVE that first one.

I've been playing with Christmas ornies from Candice's tute all week. I'll try to get some pics and show ya's.
Samma

Thanks Nagi and Samma.

Everyone's work is so great it's a little embarrassing to post my humble creations. Here are a few recent tabs.

What colors are you using for the top pendants? I love the ghostly quality
that they have.

I don't know what color she is using, but you can get a similar result using NS Extra Light yellow as your "petal", then putting another color right on top of it.

You can also get similar effects fuming silver first, laying down clear, then laying down color.

Bonny- please don't be embarassed--your work is beautiful! My favorite is the last tab--cool!:koolaid:

Hey Chad,
I have never Fumed. I have good ventilation, so...how do you fume?
