All Wired Up

And not just on coffee.  On wire, real wire! Mainly copper.  I love copper for it's earthy color and feeling.  Yes, I do believe copper "feels" earthy! lol

Coil wrapping always baffled me.  I always wondered how can that fine and flimsy wire stay wrapped on the fatter wire? How?  Well, instead of wondering I would just have to give it a try.  And from this came the above pendant.  I am so happy with it.  And best of all, I now know the wire will be perfectly fine, and once it's wrapped it's no longer flimsy!

I am off to get all wired up again. I have a cool tutorial waiting for me.  Stay tuned for more!

Did I Forget to Mention this?

Yep, I did. Sorry about that. But I'm here now to let you know that I have marked down my Halloween lampwork 20%, and the Halloween Jewelry and lined BHBeads are marked down 10%!

That's right. So now is the perfect time to stock up on those ghoulish beads and goodies you've had your eye one for some time now. Click here to go shopping!

Halloween Ghoulishness And Fall Fun

This is my favorite time of year to make lampwork beads. The colors, the whimsy, and the Halloween fun! I know I say every season is my favorite. And I guess that's true. But Halloween has a little extra special something.

This time of year I can let my freaky morbid side show with my finger beads! Totally gross, yet oh so fun. Now there's a twist on "lady fingers", lol. Or, how about some eyeballs. Every wish you had an extra set of eyes?

I've posted some of my ghoulish goodies below. Along with some great fall themed goodies. Enjoy!
Visit my shop to purchase any of these cool items!

What A Great Surprise!

Today I received my email newsletter for Artizen Magazine. It's a really cool ezine featuring all sorts of great artizens. And it's a lot of fun to read, especially since you can just click on a picture and go right to that site, page or item. I love ezines! (I really need a bigger monitor though! lol)

Well, imagine my surprise when I flipped to page 26 and found THIS (go to page 26)! Look, it's ME!!! What a thrill, I'm so excited and honored to be featured in this really great ezine. And what a great write up! I love love love Halloween and this is a really great issue.

One note: My business name, in full, is GlasstasticTreasures. Part of my name was left off, and I want to mention this because there's a really great stained glass artisan who has the name Glasstastic. So please don't get the two of us confused! ;)

Thank you Artizen Magazine! And the rest of you-go sign up for this great ezine!

What's With All The Smooshing?

Smooshing, not to be confused with mooshy, mushy or smushy, is a great group of Polymer Clay artisans from who have named their group Polymer Clay Smooshers.  And you got it, they smoosh clay.  Doesn't that sound like fun?

The Smooshers have a great Masquerade Clay Ball going on soon. It's going to be totally awesome.  So check out their blog on October 1st for more details! Hey, that's tomorrow already! Whoa!

Check out this Smooshers bracelet that you could win!  It's from HaffinaCreations!  Hey, there's still time to blog and enter the contest, so let's go!!
