Stunning work everyone, too many to comment on now but the colours are so fabulous.

This set I call  "Beside the seaside"







This set is modelled by Simba






and lastly this leaf I made using my new fancy tweezers from Galactic Glass, I have to say they do work well but the instructions from Andy at Galactic are to "heat the glass till molten, pinch together with tweezers and then flap your arms like a chicken flaps its wings".  I just hope no one was watching.   I flapped and flapped

I am up bright and early today, just going to go make beads now.

[SMHBuss]

[Black Heart Beads]

Great start to the week.
Suzy love your hollows
The love tokens look great
Lesley fab goddess, can I ask what the underside of the bead looks like. Mine are a bit of a mess and wondered if it matters or should the detail be continued? Mine are quite a lump of glass and I cant see them being used for anything other than display.

This goddess has her upper body slightly twisted as if she is paying attention to something.

Gorgeous work everyone - I'm particularly loving Sam & Lesley's Goddessess 

I haven't shown in a while but I finally got the camera out (its way too hot to torch tonight) so here goes....

   



And wow Kaz - you've been busy!

[Josephine]

Nice hollow. I've got the hang of making hollows but I'm never happy with the holes on them. Just have to keep practicing.

Another heart from me.

[fionaess]
