wilfulcait *cough* and they are willing to share their knowledge and their nifty toys with you.
Today I went up to visit withwilfulcait and she convinced me it would be a good day to learn how to play with glass. We lit up the big torch, donned safety glasses and a cool leather apron and these are the results of my first efforts .. I'm so pleased.
*clickety, clickety on the picture if you want to see more*
The green & yellow bead on the left was my first, the purple with white my 2nd bead, the third bead was crimson and yellow and did not survive and the last bead was a solid red with a black overlay and it also did not make it - but still pleased as punch with my first efforts.
Also, I think this is the beginning of a real apprenticeship withwilfulcait. Scared? Yup, a bit, .... Excited?.... you bet!

Date: 2006-11-20 01:02 am (UTC)I'm offering to make you earrings; you don't have to pay me at all. No, I won't be at BR, but I am sure that the post office can connect us. Mail me what beads you like and e-mail me about what type of earrings you want me to make. If you would like to see some of the stuff I can do, I will e-mail you pics so you can get an idea of my style.
Hugs and kisses,
Claire
