Hi Y'all,
Well I finally got to the torch for the first time since the storm. It felt really good to make some beads for the first time in what felt like ages! We took another direct hit and survived the hurricane with little damage to our home, but the worst of our woes came when a wire shorted out in our generator and fried a bunch of stuff. The fridge, microwave, garage door opener, smoke detectors and telephone were among the victims of the massive surge, but fortunately, the things I had plugged into power strips survived. Not really enough damage to file a claim with our insurance, but definitely enough to pinch the pocketbook! Grrrr!!!!
I packed up all my frit to move into my new studio next week. All except the raku frit that is. So you guessed it, this week I have some raku, and some more raku! I've listed 4 new auctions tonight. Some really gorgeous squeezed beads, two sets of rounds, and a small set of seashells.
Why don't you click on over and take a peek....
