I love all the hearts we have this week, it must be 'that' time of year again.

And Helen those pink and blue beads are divine!

My humble offerings are a marmite glass goddess, covered in silver and fumed in places to a milky blue.

And a totally unimpressive first go at a button, but the shape's almost spot on so I had to be smug.

Not sure I've ever started one of these  This is what the kiln kept safe for me last night, more of the same I'm afraid

Lovely earring studs!
Sal: that is gorgeous!
The Dove set is beautiful.
Silke: fab heart!

I had a quick try out of the Vetromagic earring studs:



I made a pink dichro focal (plus kalypso). The dichro is really blingy in this one (and that's the mandrel line visible in the second pic, not a crack).



Then a blue one. I used the Underwater World Mini Mo Club shards on this, and was very surprised when they went grey! (Should be silver-infused green). I think the silver really reacted with the Lauscha turquoise, though that itself remained perfectly clean! You can see a thin green area next to the spiral where the shard didn't have silver. It didn't quite turn out as intended, but I rather like it anyway.



A ringtopper with raku and enamel.



Another underwater pendant topper.

Note to self: next time I'm asked to make roses for Valentine's Day, make them *before* the temperature in the studio drops to single figures!

Absolutely gorgeous beads from everyone- and so many different styles!!  Here is my offering this week...I thought I would have a go at making hearts as its nearly Valentines Day!  This is my first attempt at a heart with the hole going down the centre of the bead and I'm quite pleased!!
