Scrollwork!

Lately I've been going a little crazy with scrollwork. Scrollwork was always one of those things that I loved to look at, but sucked at when I was first starting out. I would have my stringer ready and positioned, I'd make a perfect scroll and then breathe out a sigh of relief. The force of my breath pushes the flame towards my perfect little scroll and melts it partway in. AAAAAH!

Since then I've gotten a lot better at it. I've learned to breathe softly and have a much better handle on my scrolls. Here's a little collection of recent stuff. It's all up on Etsy and Artfire :) Enjoy!

Summer Vacation!

Hello everyone! Hope you're all having a wonderful summer so far even if it's not technically summer yet. I've been very busy lately between my day job and promoting my art. Please accept my apologies for not updating my blog like I should.

I'm on vacation starting today! Yay! I'll still be making beads and promoting and whatnot, but I don't have to go to my day job for more than a week. That makes me very happy :) My new goal that I'm trying to jump start this week is to list items every day Monday through Friday. So far I've been doing well, but it is only Tuesday. Wish me luck with that.

I've joined Twitter and Myspace over the past month, so if you have an account, add me!

Honestly I'm not a big fan of twitter. I guess I just don't really get it, but I'm trying it out for a while. If you have any suggestions or anything I'm open to them.

Anyways, you guys all have a wonderful June!
