Striped with Summer

Wow have we had some beautiful weather here in Florida…..low to mid 80’s!  In June!!!!!!  How about that!  It probably won’t last thoughL  Our summers are brutal and they seem to last forever!  That’s what our beaches and swimming pools are for…right?  I made these pretty ovals awhile ago and just wrapped them up with some silver wire.  

My plans are to make a pretty neck piece but will it be chunky or long and linky?   Hmmmmm…..gotta think about it!  

Have an awesome weekend!

Stringers

Stringers!  I love working them into my lampwork beads!  I pulled these  the other day and now I am ready to melt them on some pretty rounds!  I will have some pretties listed soon on my Etsy store!

Hot Creative Days

Happy Friday!  

Wow….the temperatures are really heating up here in the Sunshine State!  Heat index to reach 100 degrees!!!! Nooooo….its only May.  

Oh well, I really cannot complain because we have had the most spectacular Spring this year.  I pulled some stringers this week to melt onto to some beads.  

I love combining colors in my stringers as you can see from the picture.  

I just cleaned some really pretty bright colored beads that I made earlier this week.  They turned out so pretty!  

Can’t wait to wire them up into something nice!

More beautiful weather!

What a glorious weekend!  

We had a nice surprise late season cold front that came through last week.  

It brought us a lot of awesome rain and then a beeeeaaautiful weekend of dry cool weather! Yippee!!!  

We won’t be seeing this kind of weather again until November so I relish every minute of it!  

Hope you all had a great weekend! 

 Listing this pretty spoon bracelet in my Etsy shop…..go check it out!

Boho?

More Goodies!!  

I just took these beauties out of the kiln and thought maybe I would make a boho necklace with them.  

I am thinking about connecting them with these oh so cool wire circles that I made and enameled.  Maybe I will etch the beads….not sure.  Lots of projects to get to so get out there and enjoy your Friday!  Happy Weekend!

Treasure

Hmmm…..what to do with these treasures!  

I love enameling almost as much as I love to make glass beads.  There is an awesome hardware store that is a little drive from my house that carries everything!  While most of the patrons in there are looking for hard to find plumbing, electrical, and building supplies, I am always perusing the aisles for items I can incorporate into my craft.  On occasion they carry nice big thin sheets of copper that I can cut with regular scissors.  I usually snap that right up and use it for my enameling projects!  LOVE!!!!  Well off to the studio to see what I can create today! 

 Have a good one!

Belated Mother's Day

Happy belated Mother's Day to all the moms out there and especially to my mom who has been gone 18 years....hard to believe it has been that long!  

I know she has the penthouse in heaven....I just know it!  She and my dad raised 5 kids and held down professional careers....Bravo to you both!  These flowers are for you mom :)
