Deep Freeze!

Its snowing! Yay! I`m like a big kid when I see snow falling.

I`ve been in my garage / studio all morning, thinking I`m some kind of bead superhero - well I can safely say I`m not!!

My hands are frozen... I can hardly feel my thumb, my little fingers are red and I cant get warm... booooo. I just want to make beads. I`ve made a few sets today..they are a bit different. If they come out of the kiln ok tomorrow I`ll show you.

Earring Day II

These earrings are made with my 'Terra Swirls' Spree Shaped Lampwork Beads. They are made with a glass from Double Helix 'Terra'. I love Double Helix Glass, its totally amazing. It is loaded with silver and produces amazing reactions whenworked in different flames.
Teamed with my favourite ear hooks and some Hilltribe silver - the look is complete!

Earring Day.

I found these beautiful large Silver earring hooks and just HAD to use them. I`ve used my encased psyche lampwork beads with sterling silver shaggy loop chainmaille. Not the best pics sorry.....
