The lentils are made with a press...the Cattwalk button press...size 1-1/4". I really like this particular press...

A pendant and a marble from me. the marbles have been a bigger challenge for me then I expected, i guess just practice, practice, practice.

:love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

Oh man, you all posted some awesome stuff.

Sandree, how does the regalia/lynx compare to the lynx on tanked oxy? I am considering getting one of them in the furture.

Sally I love your stone I'm so happy to see you posting. Oh i might have to get some of that glass, oh no...

here are some marble beads i have been trying to work on lately Trying to make then quick and easy for an upcoming job so far its been a trial who knew completely round could be such a hassel.
Love the marble
what color is that that its so translucent and ghost like?

Which pastel colors?

:jawdrop: WOW! :jawdrop:

I post this morning and I come back and there are a TON of awesome pieces here! :fireblob:

BRB w/ my comments.

You all do such gorgeous work! I should probably post in the other thread, I'm still pretty much a newbie. Some days it's hard getting to the boro. Oh well. These are Triple Passion tweezer twists. I was just totally jazzed that they're all about the same size! Not easy for me with boro.

Hey man, I don't see any of your pics? What's up w/ that??? :-s

It looks like it could be either NS yellow, or extra light yellow.

Thank you all for the kudos, much appreciated! :kiss:

Sally, whoa, nice job on that piece.
Sandy, love the lentils, crisp and clean.
Ashlea, wispy and surreal, I like it.
Wendy, great colors in those, I am marble challenged. ;)

Rebecca, nice to see you working Boro...you were a big part of the Smiley thread a year ago and you've been missed. :love:

Chit chat, chit chat...:lol:

Awwww thanks Carrie! That's nice of you to say. I'm still trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up. I'm only in my 40's after all...:lol:
(chit chat, chit chat:-P )

Guess this makes me the older sister, huh? :D :badgrin:
Sooo, did you pick up all those teeny balls? :twisted:

Now, seriously, there's some unbelievable glass here today. Thanks to all who liked my pendants, thank you soo much. It's been a good day in the neighborhood today and your kind words were a big part of it!

*snort* They're so small I can't even find my teeny balls.:-D And Sis? I'll let you explain since you're older. LOL!

Naughty CB!!!

I admit it, there's a bit of a double standard here. I've been working on something... with very limited success. I have some pieces done but no pics yet. It's such a simple idea, and until the other day I had NO idea why I was failing so horribly. I finally had some insight into the problem, but then some other stuff came up...

I promise I'll have some pics after this weekend :) Maybe even during this weekend...depending on whether I can find a computer...

Wow, I'm so impressed will all of you guys!!! I still feel like a boro newbie when I compare my stuff to all the beauty above, but I'm getting there darn it.

(There's no way I'm putting any of my boro pictures up now!) :lol:

Not all of these were made in April, but a good many of them were.

Figured I'd post what I've been up to for the past couple of months...

Wow Cosmo, you have been a very busy bee!!! Look at that eye candy will you.

Those TP beads are awesome!! Inventory looks great Cosmo - I'm sure there are tons more!

Marbles are fun, huh? I wire wrapped one into a cage pendant the other night...looks cool!

These are some of my Ozzy-dog bones I'll have when we compete at the Nuts for Mutts dog show this weekend.

chit chat!
:love:

Sadly, no. I need to get some more marbles made. I want to make 20 or so more before next weekend. I'm pretty much covered in the way of pendants, but I need some more round stuff. Especially since my booth at the show is labeled "Art Glass Marbles".

Yeah, I need to make some more marbles as well. I have lots of Dichro ones, but I need to make some more vortex and implosion marbles for my show. Hey, we still have a week, so if we do 4 per day we will be fine, right? :)

Yeah, but with my two jobs, I usually only get one or two days of torch time per week...

Now, that could be a problem. But hey, you young guys don't need sleep, right? :poke:

Here is a wierd pendant from this week. It has generated some new ideas that I want to try out tomorrow. The inside is Amazon bronze frit and the outside is amazon night or lagoon...which ever is more green in frit form.

Eric your new stuff is sooo cool!!!
Here's my latest stuff, got to play last night. My first butterfly:

Ugh I didn't edit that last one too well, but too late! :p

cool butterfly and hummingbird. The colors in that last pendant are very nice also.

Eric, I'm really liking your new work! This is a sweet pendant!
Chitty chitty chat chat...Patrice I like the colors in that last piece.
Toni, love dem' funky bones. Chit chat chit. Lori
