Kelly, What is it you're wanting to know exactly? The green stone or the lampwork beads that I made? I will help you in any way that I can.

ahhh, Hi Lori, the green you used in your beads..sorry, guess I should have just asked you, I love that color green! beautiful bracelet too by the way. you know what, I am not seeing any green stones, do they look like round lampwork beads? maybe i am thinking the green stones ARE lampwork beads, they look like it in the pic, I am looking at the very top braclet, amazing grace, but the green in the background of your focal looks like the same color...havent worked much with greens because I cant find one I like.

::blushing:: thank you so much for the sweet comments. (suzanne/kelly)
kelly, the beads you're referring to are Triple Grade Australian Green Lace Agate. I used them for a line of jewelry I did for the Vera Bradley Company and thought it would be fun to add lampwork with them. (their bracelets only have gemstones in them at this time, but in spring, will expand to lamp) I purchased them from a bead show that came to Cincinnati in October.
The frit in my Amazing Grace bracelet is Candy's frit (beadgoodies.com) and is gorgeous!!! Easy to make too. Ivory base, straw yellow on top, then silver foil, then roll. Easy. You can never go wrong with candy's frit...I have it all and LOVE everything.
If you have any other questions, I'll be glad to answer them. Thank you again. It made my day.
Warmly,
laurie
PS: Kelly, yeah just ask me next time but I love seeing my name on lampwork etc!! Tooooo cool dude!!! I'm always willing to tell this or that and help pass it along... unless it has to do with my weight. Now THAT, I ain't given' up!! ::giggles::

Absolutely nothing to do with this topic, but my name used to be Laurie Eller, lol! My first husband's last name was Eller. I had to do a double take when I saw this.
BTW, I looked at your site and see that my jewelry designs are very similar to yours!

OMG that's a hoot!!! Eller isn't a common name either, you know? Too funny! Well, it's nice to meet you, Laurie, what-used-to-be Eller.
My hubby is adorable...has THE best sense of humor.
www.jeffeller.blogspot.com It's been a while since he's blogged...a bit busy, but it's that time of year. BUSY!!
I'll have to check out your designs. I couldn't find them in your post.

Laurie, you live in Damascus... okay now THIS is weird!! I lived in Silver Spring for six years. Busy, crazy area, but we loved it nonetheless. We lived right off Georgia Avenue... I have friends in Damascus. Lovely area. What a small world, indeed.

LOL! That is so funny -- my ex was from Beltsville, right between Route 29 and Route 1...maybe you married my ex, lol! He was a really nice guy, we were just way too young. We only stayed married for six months.
Anyway -- great to meet you. Give me a shout if you ever make it out this way.
Oh, forgot to add -- I don't have a website and I don't sell on ebay. I'm fortunate enough that there's a small boutique in the Kentlands that buys everything I make. As a matter of fact, since I started lampworking she's getting a bit peeved at me because I've been busy learning and creating newby beads (very few that I can use in a sellable format). I was very into polymer clay prior to lampworking, and just plain jewelry with gemstones, crystals, polymer clay beads, sterling silver and lots and lots of glass (chinese, probably) beads. I was a frequent shopper at the period bead shows. My favorite thing to make are the cha-cha bracelets. I never wear them, but boy I like making them.

cadia the beads aren't lampwork. they're triple grade australian green lace agate... they're large (15mm) and gorgeous. i coupled them with the lampwork beads... i suppose they do look like lampwork but if you felt them they would feel more like stone.

Laurie, I apologise, I would have asked you directly, I thought I read somewhere that you purchased your beads for your bracelets (lampwork) so I wasnt sure that you knew?? silly me, glad everyone can see how fab your stuff is, I am a closet watcher of your stuff, hoping some day (over a year later and my beads are still crap) that i can do something I am proud of. Thanks for all the inspiration, your stuff is absolutely FABULOUS! Glad to give you some recognition cuz your stuff sure is awesome!!!!! oh, by the way, thanks for "turning me on" to bead goodies, i need another frit sight like a hole in the head, ha ha ha. I have a bad frit addiction. thanks lol...
