Zebra Bead Demo

(Click the thumbnail above to go to the video!)

Tilly and I jury rigged a didymium filter for her Flip video camera (using painter's tape to hold a lens from a spare pair of lampworking glasses over the video camera's lens) and wanted to see if it worked.

It does. Yea!

Now I just have to figure out something interesting to do... Is there any kind of bead you'd like to see made?

Working On It!

I know it's been over a week since I added any new beads, but I am working on some new sets to post later this week. 

In case you're wondering why it has been so quiet around here, this is the reason:  my "To Do" list.  I swear the blasted thing grows exponentially while I sleep, along with all the wire shirt hangers and unmatched socks!

Notice anything particular about it?  Like, how so far this morning, I've only managed to get ONE teeny, tiny thing accomplished? Grrrr!

Give me strength.

Beads and Buttons!!

New Beads!

Can't Help Myself!

Apparently, I have a mini obsession with watermelon tourmaline right now.  I Googled images last night and found a couple more that I thought were absolutely lovely!  Obviously. these aren't mine.  But I wish they were!

I Love Watermelon!

Watermelon Tourmaline, that is.  (The real stuff makes my stomach hurt - weird, dontcha think?)  Not these beads though, they're completely painless and twice as delicious!

 By the way, this is what slices of real watermelon tourmaline look like. :-)

Movie Tuesday!

 Today is $.75 movies all day long at the local dollar movie theater.  The kids and I have never seen the new Alice in Wonderland with Johnny Depp, so we're heading to see it in a minute.  When I get back, I've got these floral beads to post and a super set of pink hollows!
