I think I have begun to spread my wings and I am scared. How in the world am I supposed to fly? What if I hit the side of a building? What if I don't know how to land? And in the land of "what ifs" I am still spreading my wings, and beginning to realize that glass has given me so much more than I would have ever dreamed.
I've made some wonderful friends both online and in real life through the glass. People that make me laugh, inspire me, encourage me, and give me a sense of belonging.
This bead makes me laugh so hard...go look and tell me it doesn't just make you giggle. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7934774 She makes some awesome beads.
Then there is this http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=8723223 Amazing fused pieces that I go and drool over on a regular basis.
And this: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7302957 The metal work is astonishing and beyond beautiful. And out of my price range, but hey, I can always dream, right?
If you've never checked out what Etsy has to offer, you should wander over there and check it all out. You could wander for days and never get to the end of what you can find.
I also started a flickr photostream. http://www.flickr.com/photos/derondadesigns/ Now I must thank my daughter LC for getting me on Vox and Flickr. But I've been adding more and more pictures to flickr and it's kind of fun. I've been getting people adding me to their contacts and how sweet is that?
But just in case you don't have time to go to flickr, I will show you a couple of things I've been doing; cuz ain't that the fun part? seeing the pictures?
