Barbara Becker Simon --- Astounding Beads!

The ants are fun. But the flowers just about make me swoon.

And awesome PMC. The fish! The squiggle bead. Oh yum yum.

I see she's doing the certification program in SF in Sept. She didn't list a price for the class. My PMC Guild certification class was $425.00. As a certified member of the guild you'll be able to get your clay at wholesale.

Wonderful work.

Wow, wow, wow. I bet she doesn't drink coffee with all that detail in her work.

So this has inspired me to try some fish today. Mine always look so damn goofy. I hate that. You know whose fish I also like a lot? Ofilia Cinta. They have luscious fishie lips. I'm really into fish lips.

I'm blowing off all the housework, have the puppy in her crate, all the animals are fed, Prairieson is at work: I'm going to PLAY PLAY PLAY at the torch!

Ironically, I'm sitting here at the computer right now because once I got the kiln fired up and looked at my glass, I heaved a sigh and realized that I need to focus just a wee bit more before torching.

So today, I believe it shall be fishies, plunged florals, maybe some hollows... And I am determined to make some accent beads and spacers. I need to be a tad more disciplined.

Tink, I'm sharing a table at the Bead Bazaar with my friend, Ofilia. I'll pass on the compliment to her. Patti

I will. She's a very sweet person, she will appreciate your comments. Patti

LOL! I sat down today to make nothing but spacers, nice disciplined spacers, and I ended up with a set of florals and a baby. (No, not Ophelia!) My friend wants a baby bead because she's trying to conceive, and I wasn't planning on making it today, but it just happened... I'll take a picture before I give it to her, if it turns out.
