A few experimental beads!

I've been trying some more experimental beads, so here are my Pups, my snowmen, and my hippy owl!!!!

It's been a while!

I'm not doing too well at keeping this blog up to date!
 Well I've been doing lots of lampworking and I'm making good progress improving my skills.
Here ar e a few recent makes.

I continue to sell on my facebook page, and I'm taking orders for snowmen for Christmas!!!!!

Inspired by the beach

Following my lessons with Sally and Kaz, I'm making lots of beach beads...

A bit of fun!

Sometimes its good just to have a play with some glass!

Here's my crazy glass bunny!!!!

New skillls!

New Lampies

I've been busy practising my new lampwork skills, and I've uploaded lots of new beads onto http://www.purplecobwebs.co.uk/
Some have been snapped up already, and that's fab as I now have an excuse to replenish my glass supplies and make even  more!!! Such an addictive hobby!!!
Here are a few examples...

Lampwork Lesson

I had the oportunity to spend a day in the studio of Red Hot Sal (Sally Carver) and receive some amazing tuition!

When I got home I couldn't wait to practice what I'd seen, so out came the trusty torch, the propane, the oxygen, and the kiln, and here are a few of my creations! Would love to here your comments.
