Default December S&T

Here is a pic of my first try at icecles. My first try at blown ornament turned into a pendant. LOL

Thanks dragonlite I see you use rings for stands for your marbles too. I picked up a bunch of stainless steel ones on ebay for 25 cents each if you bought 100. So I did and I love them.

So is this steel wool over white? I have to say also that the red vase is beautiful Lana, was that red tubing from china or did you coat clear with a red?

I tried to get some red in Oregon when I was there at Glass Stock but they were out so I got some of their other colours. I will have to get some red when I order next cause that is beautiful. Bob the colours in that pendant are to die for, and dragon that candle is great. It reminds me of the candles that used to clip on the christmas tree back in the day. I wish I had some of clip on candles to add to my collection on antique christmas stuff. I have some of the clip on birds which are very cute. I did try making my own 'clip on birds' yesterday I need to go out to the studio and see if they worked out.

Ditto here is what I have been doing. Wine glasses, and a little blown bird for my grandson. The blown bird has a feather in it's tail that was from the first grouse he shot in the fall.
