I began making jewelry as a teen with a loom and a myriad of colorful seed beads. I picked it up again after I got married. This time I was using larger glass beads and stone and making earrings and bracelets just for something different to wear. However, when I discovered the art of lampwork beads I fell head over heels in love. Ask anyone who melts glass...it is a strong addiction that rapidly becomes an integral part of your life.
Although I've been doing this for several years now I'm yet in the ever evolving process of learning this wonderful art and still loving every minute of it.
All of the beads that I create are annealed in my Chili Pepper kiln and each one is carefully cleaned of any bead release before they are shipped to you.
