The new glass came and you haven't heard a peep from me since :) These are some of the beads I made from Terra last week. Terra is the latest thing from Double Helix Glass. It is handmade glass with a heavy silver content. It is the silver content that makes this such a wonderful glass to work with. A whole range of color from one stick of glass. Terra does require some patience, as do most of the silver glasses. It has to be heated and cooled repeatedly to get great results. If you know me, you know I am a bit short on patience. I can hardly stand to wait for anything. Terra is sooo worth the wait. It is magical to see the the colors appear as the bead cools.
The weather has been gorgeous this week, sunny and cool with a big blue sky overhead. Work has been busy, as it always is in May~ It is a struggle to do everything this time of year and a day off is such a relaxing treasure. This coming Sunday is Mothers Day and I am taking a day off. Matt and and Sam and I will go to his grandparents for his Grandmas birthday.
Enjoy your day!
