Made some beads for my StepMum (belated Mother's Day gift)
Set of beads for her Troll Bracelet & 2 focals in the same colours ivory & pale blue (loads of reaction in the focals)

The first focal has raked dots & the other has raked stringer lines........just about to go in for a batch anneal so they haven't been cleaned yet!!

Here is  a little set from me, my first go with Terranova. I've used a base of silver cinammon.

I really like that bead, Dora.

I like those shapes, too, Julie, they've come out well !

Those colours really work well, Lesley, I like that 

I thought I'd post a couple



I quite like the colours in the first bead, but do you think I can remember what they are? !!  The second one was part of my playing around for the focal exchange, but I changed my mind and chose a different one !

Ive not done much this week with the kids off school, well I have but not bead stuff, more kids stuff etc    Anyway I got in the shed yesterday and this morning and made these.

Gorgeous stuff everyone, very colourful.

A few from last weekend and the bottom set has just gone into the kiln (fingers crossed!) I love the effect on the first set - it is Sam's Sargasso Sea frit melted into white and it looks just like a tabby cat!

Wow, Kaz, you must have been working overtime! I love your sets!
Josephine, I love those colours - still have my ASK trial pack, mus have a play with it.
Lesley, next time you doubt *any* of your beads, just send it to me
Dora, I love those florals, I wish I could study with you some time!
Christina, you've inspired me to do more with my pixie dust than dip a whole bead in it - I didn't know that was possible. Love the murrini!
Julie, I like the pods, they'd make a really nice chunky necklace!
June, I love the bottom colours - I'm having a lilac-y time at the mo' - must be spring.
Jaq *sigh*......how very, very pretty  
Oooh, wow Emma, they're lovely - are the bumps frit?


I've been playing with filigrana hollows (I had a red one as well, but lost the bubble, so it kind of doesn't qualify as a 'hollow' any more ):

Wow... amazing beads!!!!


I made a new murrini last week!!

[afina]

I have something to show today, too.
A latticino bead - I love the Japanese beads that are made this way and would like to manage to do them as beautiful as they do in a few years

[Amber]

I love these colours! 

[kaatje]

Beautiful beads in here, and the week is only 2,5 days old... !

Still have a photo here of a 40mm lentil that I made for Maria Louisa a while ago, in return I got one of her ML-fish:

105 lampwork beads later..........

Oh this S&T just gets better and better, Marion those murrini are wonderful - you clever girl and the Japanese style bead is gorgeous Verena, I also like the bright colours Amber those are really bright and nice. As for all those beads on that bracelet - amazing - what patience.

I was drooling over my 1000 glass beads book and I just love those Christina Logan beads on the front - so I made a few.





Also made a hollow





and a tube bead from last week

[sparrow]

It's still missing a bail, but I thought then I'd stick it on a red velvet ribbon and call it 'Temptation'................

[afina]

Love the dicros!
Here is my latest, a goldtab XL (35mm):
