As the studio was closing down I was able to carry out plans to sneak these pieces into the big kiln and move the manifold over for a proper bakeout. Excited to get these pieces filled. Some indeed. Studio is closed today, but we should be filling tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

Some phosphor dust coated tube in tubes. I was going to be filling them all today- but I forgot how unannealed borosilicate glass has a tendency to just crack in it's own when left for prolonged periods. I got the heat in part- but it's the heat out that I am forgetting.

Time to patch up holes and wait for the kiln and technician stars to align once more.
Excited to see how these coatings look.

What a great day I had yesterday, teaching this little group of students the basics of lampworking and glass bead making at the amazing Hopewell Hub in Hopewell, OR. Not only were they eager and very focused, they looked super cool in their matching protective eyewear!

Catch me 2 weeks from today at the Willamette Heritage Center 10 AM-4 PM for the 38th Annual Sheep to Shawl Festival. I'll have lots of new hot glass work for sale. There will be sheep (of course), llamas, alpacas and other furry friends, textile artists, lace makers, a blacksmith, and more. Free, plenty of parking. See you then.

Well, things have been just a little bit chaotic, and today has been just a bit extra, so here, have a recent seashell. One of my larger ones at just under 7 inches. I really like how I managed to give the tail such a graceful curve.

Things dried out enough here for me to make a handful of glass seashells last week, and I found a moment to photograph them yesterday. Unfortunately my annealing kiln needs a replacement part, so I'll have to wait a few days until that gets back to make anything more. Then I can start making again.

A bit of fun here. Maraschino cherry red 🍒 transparent body and deep purple 💜 transparent handle. I might put this on a silver chain or suspend it from a black leather cord.

Two shades of red, two shades of blue, clear, a few slices of millefiori cane, a dash of colorful frit, and a sprinkling of enamel powder on this lentil-shaped focal bead. All Murano glass. Happy Friday! 🔥.

Do these beads look like sweets? I encased lampworking enamel in clear Moretti glass. Now they're a bracelet with a pewter toggle. This and 300 other pieces I've made at: The Handmade Market: Saturday, December 3, 10 AM-5 PM, Oregon State Fairgrounds, Jackman-Long Building 2330 17th Street NE, Salem, OR. I'll be in booth B-9.
