A couple of sets this week to show...

IRON ORE - Lampwork Ornate Bead Set by Maid of Glass, on Flickr

[Pandanimal]

Such gorgeousness. Wonderful silver glass, I am envious of those of you who do it so well. The sugar skull is very cute. So much else, its hard to coment individually, but the ones that stand out for me are the Iron Ore

I have been having more fun with fish, trying to respond to recent advice and make them "My Own" and made a few goblins and pet pebbles too.

I have only been making beads at home for 8 months, so count myself as a relative beginner compared to some of you, but thought I would post a pic of a bracelet I made for my sisters 40th. She loved it. It was a good exercise in technique, and all the different colours actually looked great together. She likes to sit and fiddle with it in boring meetings!

More loveliness since I last looked....what a great week.  I have now almost mastered my 50mm lentil press that is a whooping 5cm the same size as the beauoooooootiful cab George has been showing elsewhere on the forum and this popped out of the kiln this morning..

And I am pleased to report that George's silver lentil pins are just long enough to do the job! LOL!!

Amazing work this week everyone, very insiring, and Jennie, what a gorgeous biggie!

I am getting used to my new torch after nearly 2 years on my beloved Hothead!

Lovely Sandy - particularly like the roses and the peacock.

Right, I'm posting before anyone posts something so fabulous it puts me to shame

Some big disks:

Some slim barrels:

And some ring toppers. Unfortunately I made the dimple on the blue one too deep and it won't screw on, so it might be off to Mizgeorge to see if she can do something wondrous with it:

The roses are so pretty but I like the discs too.
The green set are gorgeous and I wish I could get ring toppers to work for me! Those are lovely.
Two from me - first time I have made any focals in ages, quite pleased with them - enough to dare show them anyway

Lovely beads so far, I'm especially drawn to the Peacock set Sandy - just love those colours.  I think that ring topper should deffo be sent to George - its too lovely not to be worn.  Love the bottom focal too Cecillia.  I have been playing with my ornate combo roller from Bev.  This is a hollow made from Zephyr and Helios - I haven't done it justice in the photograph!

[TheJanie]

In between long, long sessions of tarting up my website (I feel like I have square eyes now), I've been practising dots and lines...

They're nice and big too - diameters, left to right: 2cm, 2.1cm, 2.4cm, 2.2cm, 1.7cm

[Princess Peggy (Priscilla McGirr)]

Some lovely work on here this week! Special mention to Jane's lovely dotties, Lesley's sweet little toadstools and those lentils of Helen's are beautiful.

Here's the result of my labours with the pesky little dragonflies....they drove me mad....I think this was the only one I was happy with.
