Justin they're great.

I need to start working on some. I signed up to do a Harvest Music Festival at a local winery in October.

I'm partial to the anenome because I'm in love with the ocean!!

Playing with a new frit blend. Liked the sample bead so much ... I had to make a set.

Much, much more sparkle in real life.
