Default Yes, No, Maybe So???

So, what do you guys think? I had a couple of what my husband calls my "idiot savant moments and these were a couple of the results. Before I commit them to the store I thought that I'd just see what you thought....

Things that you might need to know:
1. The first a frit that *does* have Double Helix "Triton" as one of the ingredients...
2. The second was not used on a blue base at all - just clear, white & siver leaf, and white.

As always, comments are always are always welcome

Nah - but there is a white hair in your first pic... Might be too long to have been from Ghost. Does one of your dogs have white hair? Can't really remember since they didn't like me so much...

There should have been an "I'm completely in love with number one and wonder what I have to do to have it really really soon" option, but there was not. So I voted with the understated "I really like number one" option.

ROFL! Hazard of the location. The little demon Diva *will* sit on my photo setup. I had a combo migraine/stomach flu one completely [u]awful[u] morning and should have probably stayed in bed instead of even trying to take pictures.

I saw a cat hair in my frit.

There's a *cat hair* in my precious frit!

I just *sifted* this batch. The *nerve of the little devil.

I tried picking it out but it just ran away. I missed with the tweezers because the migraines tend to make me lose the sight in my right eye and my depth perception was all messed up.

OH! No worries! I'll just vacuum the little pest out.

Thank you! And thank you for your feedback on #1. Bead #1 is over black, bead #2 is over white & silver leaf, Beads # 3 is over white. When it cools down tonight I may play a little more.

Hmmm - note to self: vacuuming pet hair out of frit does work - if you want to get rid of the frit also!

Thanks for the feedback, Sara! I'm not great with DH glass anymore so it may be the tester as well

. Will have another go at it as soon as I get another chance and post those - that's one of the reasons that I mentioned the Triton - there are those of you out there that can really make it sing!!!

You new pix looks like more tests of what I thought was #2.

Awe you didn't have to make more. I just figured it needed more. It looks really good on the send and third bead. Definite possibilities ... needs more play time.

Stay dry. We are currently getting a major deluge. I'm on high ground though!! But my storm swale looks like an eight foot raging creek at the moment.
