Honey Bear Beads

Hi everyone. I started designing jewelry in 2004, and I started making Lampwork beads in June of 2007. My glass addiction soon took over! I started on a hothead, which I soon outgrew, so to speak, after taking a beginners lampwork class. In which I was taught how to make round beads (not very pretty when I was done..lol) After that I bought the equipment to set up my own home studio, and have been adding to it ever since. I was fortunate enough to take a class this past spring with Lydia Muell that was just awesome, planning another in October with Emilio Santini, so excited! Tutorials are an excellent way to learn new techniques, and helped me to develop my current obsession ........flowers! I also love photography and go out and "shoot" as often as I can.
