I am on a short business trip but I got a quick picture of my latest attempts at lamp working before I left.  I am working on dots - control of size and location and layering.  After a couple color combos,  I thought I would make a disk, then when it went a bit wonky tried a hallow bead, and when that went wonky ended up with the turquoise one at the top of the picture which has a big bubble in the clear middle section.  Emma, my ever loyal and all time favorite daughter, declared it "cool".  My business trip is an "all hands" meeting of folks that do my same job in the Air Force - great fun to see many old friends - but I can't wait to get home to those I love the most :-)  Have a great week everyone!

  1. I'm in awe of anyone who can get glass to form itself into a ball and then create a hole in it! I think they look great!

  4. I love it that there is another lampworker that doesn't let a little mistake keep her from trying to turn it into something else. I just hate to waste glass but usually end up wasting more. lol
