What I've Been Up To...

I've been busy lately! Kim and I made some really, really cool bead caps and silver charms last weekend. This is the set of charms...

I've been making beads with the murrini...as usual...

Filling some winter orders...

And preparing for Turkey Day! YAY!

I have some big hole beads in the kiln in preparation for lining them with silver tubing.

Lots of fun stuff going on... www.loriandkim.com

Murrini into beads

I thought it might be fun to see the murrini and the beads in the same post so you could see what happens to these lovely little glass bits. I love using them. I've been really having a great time and it's hard to put down the murrini and make other kinds of beads!

My blog entry for today is over at Watch Me Create. It's about color!

Soap!

I have to share a great find with you. I bought some soap from Dana at http://www.abracadabrasoapco.blogspot.com/ and it is completely wonderful. Rich, creamy lather and deliciously scented, this soap has been a BIG hit around here. Even the packaging made me feel like I was getting a gift from myself. I can't wait to order again.

I have been enjoying the cooler weather around here. The days are warm but not hot and the nights are wonderfully chilly. I love autumn!

Beads and Murrini

Murrini available in http://www.loriandkim.etsy.com/ and the bead is in my http://www.loribeads.etsy.com/ store.

I really enjoy using the murrini. I am sure people are starting to wonder where all the dogs and kidlets are at this point so let me show you one of the special orders I am working on this week...
