Roger: WOwie! amazing work Roger--really nice!!!

Kim: Beautiful pendants! I love the bottom one especially! WOW!!!

Paula: Gorgeous beads--they will look so very nice on a bracelet or as a single bead on a neck hoop! The color of the copper goes so well with the boro!

They're pistachio green striped rods, part translucent, part opaque. If I marked one of the rods, I'll pm you after I come in from the garage tonight with the number.

Paula, OMG! Soooooo pretty! Please, please tell me where you got the copper, what thickness, etc.
I've been wanting to do this, I have the tools, but I'm kinda stuck on the copper.

Dang, Roger, if I was a dragon that cute, I'd NEED to grow a second head just to check myself out! aDORable!
Pretty flowers, everyone... glad Kobuki has been getting his techniques out there and making the world all the better for it, lol.
Pretty pink, there, Jodi - I don't recognize it, though. What is it?

its amazing looking through the pages of the gallery, the work is so beautiful. the greatest bead colors, blown work, sculpture, flowers etc etc. you would think with all of this beautiful work we would all be rolling in the dough, up to our eyballs with orders. things are just picking up now for me, but this past winter has been so slow.
thanks for all the inspiration everyone!

Golly... I wish I had a bigger torch setup & could try my hand at more sculptural stuff. Everything is gorgeous! But I have to say, when I saw your marbles Kim, I instantly had to check every one of your links to see if they were up for sale. LOLOL!!

Here's a couple of my photos. I wish I could the crisp photos you all get... don't know what the heck I'm doing wrong...
