Latest glass necklaces

Hello. Just a quick note to show you what I’ve been working on lately. These will go up on my Etsy shop in the next day or two. The colour on the left is a yummy ivory colour called Butter Pecan. I’ve been searching and experimenting with off-white colours for a while now and I’m really happy with this one. It’s a unique colour that may not be continued in production as it could be a difficult colour to replicate, but that’s the nature and beauty of glass production – you don’t always get the same results every time. So I am buying as much of it as I can even though it costs a lot more than regular colours. It’s just too nice not to.

And it was just a coincidence that they are all 5’s :)

Now they’ve hatched

So now that I have finished bunching them together for photographs and cooing over them like a big clucky hen, I hatched those little (big) beads and put them into necklaces. The pink is such a pretty soft shade and really should be made into a gelati flavour. Sigh.

It’s pink

I have been quiet now that I’m back at work, being busy as good little web developer. But I have found some time on the weekends to make beads. My latest muse is soft pastel pink. And lots of it. They are still sitting in my little photograph cube and every now and then I walk past and peek inside the cube to see all those little beads looking up at me. So cute, my little eggs.

Pink. Eggs.

Hollo-w Spring!

08/09/08
So it’s Spring now. The change in weather here in Brisbane, has been noticeably warmer in the last week, which I really love. Now I feel like tossing off the doona and going for a run. I love how the warm weather just makes you want to run around outside :) So with all this new energy, I’ve been spring cleaning the house, my desk, my jewellery desk and my mind. It’s a messy task (and a big one at that) but it feels so cleansing! So today I won’t show you pictures of my disorganised desks or the inner workings of my mind, instead I’ll show you the collection of hollows that I made over Winter.

I’ve been on the hollow band wagon for a while now and I’m really loving making them.  Since watching Italian glass artist Andrea Guibelli make his blown hollows in Murano, I’ve been making them since! I don’t think I’ll be stopping any time soon either. (I have to say, the cubed hollows are my favourite!)
