A couple of my recent beady non-lampwork thingies
I rarely show any of my non-lampwork bead-type projects here, but since I
was testing the camera tonight after a good cleaning (major floppy issues: it's a Mavica) I thought I'd put the results to good use. Three things on the page: First thing shows a few of the beaded beads I did. Bali and Delicas. I love these. Quick enough even for MY short attention span. LOL! Second thing is the very first slide pendant I did. You'll notice it has no loop on it yet. I couldn't get it to look the way I wanted. I'll get there. Final thing is a theme pendant - Vintage sepia image of the Toledo Museum of Art, hand colored delicately by me. So delicately, in fact, that the coloration hardly shows up in the image. On the back side of the pendant are two small images of Flo and Eddie. No, not THAT Flo and Eddie. LOL! Florence and Edward Drummond Libbey, the Museum's founders. The images are from their trip to the pyramids, taken about the same time my house was built. That's a camel that Ed is seated upon. We have floor to ceiling versions of these in our living room that we were given by the museum. The text on the back is the museum's motto. This pendant has not been soldered yet, so you're seeing naked copper foil. http://blackswampglassworks.com/stuff.htm -- Tink www.blackswampglassworks.com Sign Up Now For Fall Workshops!

Oh they're pretty. And the horizontal one has given me a fantastic idea!
How about a loop on the top at each end an a chain going from each loop, fastening at the back so it hands horizontally? I think I may try this out. Charlie. "Tink" wrote in message ...

Thanks! :-) Yep. That's exactly what I'm planning for that one. That's why
I was asking about dangle things recently. But I think I'll just do it with loops. -- Tink www.blackswampglassworks.com Sign Up Now For Fall Workshops! Hollows, Vessels & Florals...

I was thinking about approaching the Museum gallery shop about these. Maybe
they would like a series to sell? -- Tink www.blackswampglassworks.com Sign Up Now For Fall Workshops! Hollows, Vessels & Florals... "starlia" wrote in message ... OMG, those are wonderful!

No torching for me until the stack gets replaced. Too much stuff going on in
the basement. Just think though: When I have an assistant, I can put them to work on projects like the slide pendants. *sigh* It will be heavenly! -- Tink www.blackswampglassworks.com Sign Up Now For Fall Workshops!

Stop torturing me. If I didn't love DH enough I would have already moved.
As it is he is looking at a job in Nashville, only an hour drive to his mother's house. Maybe if he takes it I'll come up there. :-) Starlia "Tink" wrote in message ...
