Gorgeous beads so far this week, but Manda....wow.

Here is my first attempt at an elephant in Effetre opal rose.

Hes a bit wonky but I think he will be loved by a certain little girl

All amazing beads so far, just love the elephant!

Here's what I have managed after losing serious mojo!




and my first attemps at frogs!

Don't know about anyone else but I find earrings really difficult to photograph.

I did a happy little dance when these came out of the kiln this morning 

[Black Heart Beads]

Lovely work on show from everyone 

Sorry for the hog but after months of playing with fusing I have eventually got some finished pieces I am happy with.

[Dee Dee]

Wow, first chance I get to pop in properly and have a good look - what stunning pieces this week!

Les, I love your angels, your little people kinda remind me of the moomins too!

Sam, fan-flippin-tastic!  Are they not the unfused ones you showed the other week then?

Just these this week from me - a bit of brightness in the grey!

Hi,  I'm also going to make the effort to post something every week!
I've been on a bit of a roll this week - as well as trying to make something for the GBUK competition I made my first hollow and my first goddesses and buttons and the first BHB's that were straight (and round)!  I also had a go with some enamels that I borrowed from Kate (You don't suppose she expects to get any back do you)   Here's a little selection:

Here's a couple from me... big hole beads, but I guess you wouldn't expect much else now....

Those are looking great Stacey - I particularly like those twisted silvery lentils!
I have been mad on reactions this week as I am using up that stash of fab rubino I found!!!

And these ones are my favourites - I had been trying to work out how to combine rubino and black and the opal yellow does the trick nicely IMHO

A bit pop art meets Hundertwasser
And I have been making lots of huge BHBs which I will core later this week (including my entry to GBUK comp which I am not showing and it is very different to these)

I think this one looks really nautical!

I couldn't see that anyone had already started this one this week...

I only have one bead to offer, but I am really really pleased with it.  It was a bit of an experiment using Sasha's Silver, Aurae Light, and Clio, encased.  A bit of a wait and see bead!!

Please excuse the awful reflection of me in the bead cap!

[CarrieH]

I had a go with a few leaves, some of Isabelle's Frit, the blue bead is a hollow and the pair of blue implosion beads were my first go at Sal's tutorial photo doesn't show them too well!
