Lucky you Vonna. I just finished getting my tax stuff ready to go... and, I had to take my torch apart to send it to the company for repairs. The oxy valve has gone out on it again!!! They are replacing it with a new and improved valve. Yippee... I sure hope that helps cause I love this torch (when it's working right)!
Make a bead for me Vonna!!!

I had a go at pressed encased florals, they're not perfect but I thought I'd show you anyway:
These are supposed to be Cattwalk's Puffy Pillows

Thanks Kathy - I'm trying to get it shipped out of here today... just been unable to do it the past couple days. I did hook my minor back up, so I may get to play a little.
Your pressed florals look really good! I can't see any cold spots and your flowers are pretty much intact! Good job!!

Wow gorgeous stuff everyone. Some stunning florals!! I have a couple pics to share!

I'm going to try to make some beads today - but as of right now I'm not sure if I'll get to. I know that Monday I can't make any cause I'll be in and out just about all day and evening.
Oh - so Kathy is on holiday? I was wondering about that cause you've been making a lot of beads lately.
Vonna - I finally got all my stuff ready for the tax man... it took me forever to do it! We have an appointment late Monday to get it finished. Sorry about your cracked hollows.
Nicole - I like that gear shift bead... I won one of them on the auctions which I'm going to send to my father.
Very nice everyone!
Happy Easter!

Hi Barb !!!! Everything's the same... just put the [img]before your photo link and the[/img] after it!
I know you've been really busy lately and haven't been around as much as you'd probably like to be. We're happy to see you and would love to see what you've been up to with your bead making!

Sorry I have been exhausted lately!! here are some more pics!!

Marilyn - I haven't been busy as much as I have been run down and have decided to slow down a bit and start really paying attention to learning rather then just doing. Of course the fact that my genealogy group becomes very active in the Spring hasn't helped much with managing time.
Well - this is what happens when you can't make a round bead for your flower.
I'm working on prairie roses at the moment and they are coming out nice but I have to adjust colors on both types of flowers to more subtle.
Love everyones beads!
