These necklace photos were taken at the BABE show 2011, worn by the designer, who was shy in wanting her photo in these shots. Kim of Hayward is the amazing designer who is doing wonders with my beads. Congratulations.
This is my private road to go out to the post office when it snows during winter.
Lampworkers Tips & Tricks
Dec. 6, 2011: Adding a new trick I've just learned about. I bought a rivet tool after seeing a You Tube video on how easily it removes those hard to get off beads from the mandrels, without a lot of struggling. Contact me for further info.
I just changed my workbench and it moved my lights and electrical. To make sure that my Belson rod warmer is turned off, I plugged it into a power strip and added a night light that has to be manually turned off. I leave the night light at the ON position all of the time, letting me know that my oven is still hot. When I leave the studio I can just glance and see that all of my electrical/hot items have been turned off with just a glance that the night light is off.
I just hooked up my new Belson Gold n Hot Ceramic Oven to heat my glass rods before putting them into the flame. I cannot tell you what a difference this tiny little appliance has made in my work..!!!! First of all, my background is boro, and I'm used to working fast..and hot. As we all know, you can't work cold soft glass rods the way you do with boro. Well, even after all these years of working soft glass, I still try to work fast and end up getting stung with a flying piece of glass. This tiny little appliance has eliminated that completely..!!! My only problem now is switching out my colors to make room in that oven for more rods. Hmmmm.....
it looks like I "might" be adding another one in the near future. Any questions about this jewel of a tool.....give me a hollar.
If you get a chance please sign my guest book. I just love hearing from everyone and thanks for visiting my website..!!
