Cosmic Storm

I've just rediscovered this lovely glass, an 'odd lot' by Vetrofond. An odd lot is basically a limited edition, which means you fall in love with it and can never get hold of it again! However, I was lucky enough to be given a rod by my secret santa on Frit Happens Forum and having been playing with it. It is a lovely multi-toned glass, with shades of orange, peach and brown, with a subtle sparkle.



Both of these beads are on Etsy now!

And relax

I love making beads like these. I make the base, dab some stringers on in a random pattern, then just let gravity take over. There's something very relaxing and meditative about watching the glowing glass squidge around and do its own thing.

I've just put these swirly blue pebbles on Etsy...I think they're almost as calming to look at as they were to make!

Brown



Two very different shades of brown here! These lovely, simple etched pebbles and a chocolate brown focal, with a murrini snuggled in the middle, like a little fossil.

Both have just been listed on eBay...along with some other colours :o)
