Oodles of Glass!

I've been busy this week playing around with all the great stuff I got at the bead show last weekend. Sometimes there just aren't enough hours in the day! I picked up a ton of tumbled sea glass. I love the colors and irregular shapes, it lends itself well to pieces with a more natural feel to them.

Intergalactic Bead Show!

Spent a fun afternoon in York, PA at the Intergalactic Bead Show. Got to visit with some of my favorite peeps - Yvonne from MyElements, always a pleasure and a laugh!

Also met Laurie Jager, the owner of Bergamini Beads. I'm completely in love with her furnace glass. The colors are intense, bright and very sharp. You can tell how much craftsmanship and love goes into these beads!

I couldn't wait to get home to try out a few of her beautiful beads in my work - Here's what I've come up with so far...
