2dogs---YES! I try not to look at my gorgeous collection of lampwork pictures in Pinterest! On the other hand, it does give me hope since they all must have been newbies at one point!
My eventual goal is to make those awesome little sculptural beads --goddesses, fish, frogs, dragons.....but I realize that I won't be doing those anytime soon.
Nice shaped round beads....that's my new mantra!!
I did do one good thing...I only bought the very basic supplies and cheaper ($2 to $3 a quarter pound) glass. So, at least I'm not worrying about money when I make yucky beads!!
