RECYCLE CHANDLER GLASS



A friend gave me about 100 lbs of this glass. I have not tried to work it with other glass because I don't know the if it's 96 coe or 104 coe or 90. Its very easy to use. The pictures look like there are bubbles but it's the light. I wish I could take better pictures. Crystal shapes are fun to add to designs. What other shape would be good with clear glass?

Totally Twisted by Kerry Bogert Wire beads




I just love this book. The colored wire wrapped beads are so cool to make and adds interest to any piece that you make. I made this necklace for my Granddaughters birthday party.

Bead Star Competition


I have made it into Bead Star Competition. My Midnight bracelet is in the crystal category. The focal is one of my 24mm lentils but the beautiful crystals make this bracelet shine. Would love to get your vote.
