The more I learn, the more I want to know. Glass still fascinates me as much now as it did in the beginning. I still feel like such a newbie, and there are so many things that I don't know about what I can and can't make the glass do.
I've had the flu, and it really kicked my butt. I was miserable for days and still don't feel completely healthy yet. It's left me a bit shaky, so my torch time has been very, very limited. The last thing I need is to end up with a burn because I don't have control of the glass and flame. But not being able to stay away from the glass, I pulled out the fusing stuff and have been playing with that. It's so different than playing in the flame, but I like it. This is my first attempt at multi layered fusing...a very simple coaster design. I did one, liked it so made 3 more so I actually have a whole set of them.
See, nothing too detailed, but it does give me an idea of how things work. Of course, now I want more glass...the story of my glassy life. Sell something, buy more glass!
I've gotten more involved in EtsyBEAD which is an Etsy street team, or a group of people working together to promote their Etsy shops. It's fun to "meet" other people that share a common interest and it's a zany lot, but tons of fun. This is a set of beads that I made that a jewelry designer will use to create something to be sold for charity. I am anxious to see what she will do with them.

Here's a sneak preview of what may be listed this week in my Etsy shop. Of course, there may be others-it just depends on how the kiln fairies treat me this week.
