Economic Recovery

My stimulus package includes 20 lbs of new glass--that's a lot of flowers!

Of particular attraction is Chalcedony which is too cool for word$$$.

One Way or Another

With the passing of the economic stimulus package, I thought it prudent to update my website and refill my Etsy in order to prepare for demand : )

It's getting tricky out there. The 9-5 work part of life has slowed to a trickle, with the short-term not looking good, anxiety abound. All the while my brain is exploding with artist synapses. Very catch 22. All dressed up with no place to go. This darkness got to give. (Add your favorite analogy here.)

Nic and Eileen weekend of inspiration...

We are still gushing over the weekend we spent with Nic and Eileen at http://hillhomeforge.blogspot.com , an artist's b&b treasure in Jim Thorpe...Mauch Chunk for you natives. Nic's a master iron and glass artist, and Eileen's a jeweler, weaver, cooker, and tons of other 'ers that I've failed to mention. Plus are they cool.

Eileen named one of her wire collection after me, wonder if the fact it's twisted had anything to do with that?

Studio Move

With the studio move, I was encouraged to post the Etsy autumn bead collection. See it at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5616760
