Fab beadies everyone! 
Some from me..haven't posted in ages.. been muchly unimpressed with my progress , but happier with these ones

Hi!
Josephine, the lariat is beautiful! And Vicki, your fish beads are soo nice!
Sorry to hog again, but I really wanted to show you this starbead...


I used Ornela violet, white, Moretti pink and lots of rubino Oro.

It seems everybody is somewhere else (!?), so I´ll start new thread, because I this once had made beads and even taken pics... So I got a little bit carried away with the goddess beads and made a copule more after making one to Marion:



The next one I made same time as Marion´s. She is having crack in her leg. It happens to be the same side leg than my own hurting knee, so I named her The Goddess of Broken Knees. I made key chain thingie of her:

Hi!
I have a new goddess to show. Teresas tutorial had some very god hints!

Wow Les, that middle one is gorgeous! And Lesleymac's leaf is cool, and those stars Jeanette - I haven't tried anything that complicated yet! I think they are lovely
I finally got back to the torch today, after more than two weeks.. I tried out some vetro odds which I swapped with Vikki - painted desert and I've forgotten the name of the other - but they're gorgeous! Thank you!
Also, I have made some more of my opal yellow and green beads..

I`ll get us started with some bright beads that I made whilst in a fantastic mood!

[Lush!]

Happy beads, and happy bowl -- love them both 

I'm happy too - more dots, and the first set were such posers in front of the camera, they were a dream to photograph for once!






Oops, too big?!  Sorry!

HH EDIT: yep! have made them the max 500px

After faffing around for a while I have at last copper electroformed a bead. I patinated the bead and silver chain. It took a while to resourse all the materials but I like the reaction and now want to go on and do some quite industrial sized beads - this pendant is about 2" in total. 
One upshot of this is that I really like the darkened silver chain.

I'll join in today
Beautiful beads Rachel - I love seeing all the colours together like that.  Steph I think your lattice bowls are gorgeous, Julie - loving your dots!  I particularly like the colours in the second set.  Sherry - what fabulous beads and Sabine, that's a beautiful bead - I've only had one go at silver cores which wasn't very successful .  I've just got one set to show - some floral buttons

[TheJanie]

I've finally got round to trying silver coring this week - these are my second and third attempt (the first one isn't here - little bits of glass kept chipping off but I think it was because the bead was one I made ages ago before I'd got the hang of getting them even!).

[LesleyMac]

Wow, wow, wow, lovely stuff on here
Beautiful brights from Rachel, scrummy bowl from Steph (so glad you are back) and its gorgeous, I love those Julie - gorgeous colours and very funky.  Sherry - I am not surprised you are wearing these to your wedding they are absolutely stunning.  Sabine - I love the brightness of the silver core, really nice.  I like those flowers Rachel and last but not least I really like Janie's silver cores because they are so different.

Some from me then

Wow  - so many beautiful beads  I want them all. Spring must be in the air for some of you with all these lovely bright colours Mindy - I am so glad I live close to you   I just seem to want to make organics at the moment    - 1st pic is cim glass and electra. Pic was taken before I got new camera (which may be getting thrown out of the window very soon). Second set just some organics with I think some ask glass, and last two pics are of my first play with intense black, and more CIM colours again. I LOVE that glass .     Nothing special, but now that I'm getting more torch time in I'm glad to be able to show something lol! (click on pic for bigger pic)

Fab beads Mindy. I love your colour combinations.
Steph, your coasters remind me of crisp bedlinen. Yum.
Becky, gorgeous boro!
I've had to make do with faux boro....
