Good afternoon,
Yipeeee ... this is one glass I just have never understood why people like it and now you're gonna tell me! Could you be so kind as to maybe tell us what glass is used in each of the photos above? I LOVE the colors you get and actually have some Canyon I thought about putting in the garage ... but I will keep it now!! Thanks so much for doing this!!!!

Well I can't tell you all the glasses as I do not remember. I lost a lot of my data due to a computer crash a few months ago.
Just experiment with the silver glasses. I use raku, psyche, triton, nyx , clio and ekho mostly.
Most of the twisties are created with raku and black stripes and sometimes other silver glasses as well. Oh also multidark. I use silver ivory shards on top of the canyon as well, plus many different frit blends.

Thank You Jacqueline. What a treat.....each one is more beautiful than the other. those purples, blues and greens and all in between.
Do I see that, maybe, just perhaps, there is an ice crystal starting to take hold on lake hades?
During tonight's meditation I will envision ice crystals spreading.
YIPPIE, indeed, thank you for showing those.

Gorgeous beads!! I appreciate this because I just bought my first batch of Canyon de Chelly, and have wondered how best to use it. I've got some good ideas now! Thanks!

Gem, You definitely have the silver glass rockin' with or without CDC.
I personally really like CDC...even all by itself!

Oh wow, I didn't know CDC look so good. I can't get CDC to do anything but I did make a couple of Lavender Creek type toads with it.

I love it! I made a stringer with it and did some victorian scrolls (from Kerri Fuhr's tut) and the scrolls have subtle shading differences which look really nice. Subtle, but nice.

Gorgeous beads everyone!
And I also love CDC (I like that, I usually call it chelly).
I can get from purple to white, and yes it LOVES silver and silver glasses.
As far as I know, it does have silver in it correct?

It does have some silver in it. It's pronounced Canyon de Shay, in case anyone was wondering ....

Aside from the eyes and nose, that is JUST CdC? My goodness.
When I first got started again, it was one I wanted. Then I started buying bug lots oh glass from people and none of the lots had it. Then, I kinda just forgot about it. Now, mama wants!

You are among those with the most amazing talent in the lampworking world! These beads almost knocked me out of my chair....just incredible! I love florals so much and I buy them, I sure don't make 'em! 
I see that it makes a wonderful base color so now I have a new respect for it. I got baby poop yellow from it a few times before so I gave up. I would really like to know what glass is used for the bright violet flower petals in pics #5 and #6? Is that 104?? I'm thinking that if it is some kind of trick you did with edp or rubino...I'm going to scream! lol

I love the blossoms Gemsinbloom... they are amazing!

My compliments to wildatheart for the outstanding owl bead.
De, your work is amazing no matter what you do.
And wow... I mewkittie, I want one of your frogs: )
I love Cdc too! It seems it can be tricky if you overheat or overwork it.
