It's been forever

Okay.....so I've been a posting failure. I've been busy making things for the upcoming fall festival crush. We'll be traveling from Tallahassee, Fla to Banner Elk, NC and all parts in between over the course of the next few months. I've been developing new designs for pendants, blowing out some ornaments as prototypes for the coming year and Madeline has been making beads, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. We can't wait to get back out there and show people what we've been up to. First up is Newnan, Georgia for the Powers Festival of Coweta County. Here's a sample of what's coming.

Savannah was Terrific!

We just got back from a show in Savannah. We had a great time and made some really terrific new friends. We're on the road all Spring and I'm going to start posting a list here of where we will be and when. All I have to do now if figure out how to do that.

Snow!!!

It snowed on us last night. We're getting ready to go to Savannah for a show at the end of this coming week, but I had to stop to look at the beautiful snow fall. This is a shot from the front of the house looking out. I love the muffled sounds that come with a snowfall. I hear it so seldom. I enjoyed this very much.

Gosh, I've been a way for a long time. It's Thanksgiving and I'm a blogging failure. I have been making some glass though. I've been going some shows and having a great time with the people that have come to see us. I want to thank all of those that came to look and especially those that took something home with them. I really hope they enjoy it for years and years. I have some photos of things I'm going to put up so you know what I've been working on. Thanks for stopping by. (I'll try to do better in the coming year.)

Show and Tell ... Sorta

Alright!!! So I've been making Christmas ornaments. Lots of them... I love these darned things. They take way too much time to make, but I can't stop. Here are a couple just to show you what I'm doing.

What have I been doing?

Right? What HAVE I been doing? Well, we run a blueberry farm ( in addition to other stuff ) and it's blueberry season (and we've done a few shows) and ummm...I've been busy doing other stuff. I have recently relearned the very first pendant tricks that learned. Mushrooms. Almost every borosilicate glass worker learns how to do these early on. They are just too much fun to make and I'm having lots of fun just making.... Mushrooms. I'll get serious again soon. I promise.

Turtles .... Slow, but slow

So I promised a picture of a turtle.....they really are fun to make. I try to give them a little personality and some visual texture. I don't name them though, that would be way too much detail. Owners are free to name them.
