Whats New?

Well, its getting that time of year when the sun goes South and the days get colder, we have enjoyed a really mild winter so far, I am busy making glass beads, yep you heard right glass beads. Melted glass on mandrels with different colored glass and frit (small pieces of glass that reacts to a flame with no oxygen in it) that make some interesting designs. Our beads are free form as some of the more professional bead makers can put landscapes or make fish, or just about anything. Since we are new to this we haven't gotten our feet wet yet as far as making some of the above mentioned beads. So we just stick to free form. Believe it or not we have sold some. So I guess we are doing something right. Well Jan and I will try to make the reunion at the end of Dec, but it will depend on the weather. I don't drive in snow. I have 4 years of it in the military and vowed never to drive in it again. And I haven't. So hi to all and bye for now. Steve
