I hope you like them please let me have feedback. Thanks 2011-4-27 21:22:53 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#84322 I just noticed I have not Blogged since August I am still here. I am going to concentrate on on line sales this year so I will be spending more time on here and Etsy and Ebay. I have listed some of my Cutlery on Ebay yesterday as it was a free listing day and a chance to clear out lots of things that have been hanging around the house for ages so its a bit of a mix. My old Laura Ashley books have to go they are a great source of inspiration but are taking up space which I need for my mountain of beads Anyway please take a look at my listings. 2011-1-10 18:53:42 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#72364 I have just got home after my stall at William Wheats it was so nice to see faces old and new.

Parties are structured but informal ... 2009-11-13 15:04:59 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#51321 I first saw Lampwork featured in the Bead and Button Magazine a few years ago. I did not know anything about glass beads at all so after researching on the internet I decided to do a course and my interest was born. After undertaking a course with Sally Carver I knew it was something I really wanted to do. Finding a suitable place was going to prove difficult. Then I remembered... We had an old Greenhouse which was falling down and there was a potting shed attached to it. This was where fire was used in Edwardian times to heat up the pipes. I realised this area had the potential to be my work area and my Studio. We had the Greenhouse and the Studio renovated and now I had a place to do my Lampwork. I hope you like my work I really enjoyed making it for you. 2009-10-25 09:14:33 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#44288 Here is a link to my ETSY site 2009-7-3 09:55:54 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#44287 2009-7-3 09:53:09 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#42989 I must say how much I enjoyed doing the Trininty Fair at Holy Trinity Cof E Parish Church on Saturday 6 June 2009 it was great to be involved in such worthwhile charities as httpwww.newlifecharity.co.uk and httpwww.hamlinfistulauk.org. I do hope that lots of money was raised for the good causes. Thanks to all involved. 2009-6-8 18:17:28 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#40954 2009-5-3 16:13:40 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#40952 I finally got my kiln going and I am going to post a picture of it in action with my new beads inside. This is the last lot of batch annealing I am doing from now on I will be putting them straight into the kiln... I hope it works 2009-5-3 15:45:24 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#40403 Rachel just emailed me a great article about copyright it is really interesting.This is the link here 2009-4-23 18:27:42 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#40401 I must say how much I enjoyed the flame off this year. Thanks for taking me Rachel.. or is it Blue Dont forget to visit www.silverfusion.co.uk for some lovely goodies from Rach. I hope the site is up nowI really enjoyed watching the Demos Julie Ann Denton Sarah Hornick Beverley Hicklin were all excellent. I learnt so much I was so inspired I bought a new kiln from Martin at www.tuffnellglass.com. It is a Paragon Bluebird and I can not wait to get it going. We need a few adjustments to the studio first I must say the lampworkers are so generous with their help and certainly get those creative brain cells working overtime. I visited Sal at Red Hot Sal and thanked her for her generous annealment of my beads up to now. It is great to get that kind of support. Anyway as a thank you I am posting her site here so just click on it.If you want to learn how to make beads your self Sal has a great DVD out. I must get a copy for myself 2009-4-23 18:08:54 http://www.lampworkglass.co.uk/page14.htm#39770 Well I would like to wish all my customers a very Happy Easter. I have spent all the holidays updating my site and finally I have put some new things on My Etsy site. In spite of joining a year ago I have only just got around to doing this. It has been a lovely day today. I went to do some Lampworking this afternoon... boy it was hot in the Studio. Mustnt complain it is better than that winter cold 2009-4-13 20:30:42
