Snow Days

Digging out of the snow once again! This time 10". We haven't seen this much snow in a while, the past few years has been mostly ice. I'll take the snow any day! It's so beautiful when it's falling and this morning when stepping out the flakes were sparkling in the sun like diamonds. I still have to say come on spring! I'm longing to get my hands in the dirt, planting my veggies and flowers.

I got up early this morning, starving, so I went to the bread I baked yesterday slicing away and then ouch! I practically cut the tip of my index finger off! Well okay not totally off but close. That's what ya get sneaking some bread at 5 a.m. So I'm having a little trouble typing with my big bandaged finger. I hope I can make beads tomorrow, special order in the works.

Stringer Time

I'm just about out of oxygen so I thought why not make up a bunch of stringers for my lampwork glass beads? So when I get another cylinder I can bust-a-move! : D

Glass Buttons for Leslie

Leslie from The Greenberry House had mentioned to me a while back about making glass beads and I had actually forgot about it until a couple weeks ago. So since I've got right much time on my hands I decided to give it a try and I think they turned out pretty good for an newbie button maker ;^) I'm thinking I'll try some on etsy too!
