Diamonds are a girls best friend?

Wow, I can't believe its been a year since I've posted. SO many things have changed. These days I sell very little on Etsy and do most of my sales on Facebook. Auction style in different groups dedicated to lampwork beads. I love it, so easy, faster and more of a connection with my customers!

Why diamonds you ask? Well those are a great new shape I have been making. Actually I purchased the diamond press used. I was actually looking for a crystal shape but I didn't realize the difference. I made a purchase from out of the US and when it arrived I was a bit disappointed but I figured I'd give it a try. WOW, I love this press! It has become my absolute favorite! I'll post some pics below so you can see what I mean.
So, if your looking for me on Etsy, I'm still there but most all of my new work goes on Facebook. Handmade Lampwork Beads For Sale, Artisan Lampwork Beads For Sale, Lampwork Beads for Sale and Lampwork Auctions are the groups I frequent most but on occasion I will be found on others too!
I hope you'll come find me, along with lots of other fantastic artists you'll probably recognize!
Heres a small sampling of recent work, including a few monsters!!
Thanks for looking!

Whats new!

I'm back. Its been just over a month since my last post. I've been busy with life, Drs 2 days a week, kids, garden, dogs and friends have moved back to Florida and right across the street! Jess doesn't play with fire like I do but she does like to craft so YES, I'll take that....having a friend that enjoys creating is a good thing! :-) She likes to crochet and does beautiful work! her Etsy shop is https://www.etsy.com/shop/MamadukesCreations She makes the cutest things. Her Etsy shop is just getting started this item that already sold and my favorite, but no worries, you can have her make one for your little one as this is a made to order item!! I'm sure once she is settled into her new home she will be back up and running with a nice full shop!! Right Jess?! I've been making earrings......and have loads more pairs to make into more earrings. Heres a pair I've finished. Its not listed in my shop yet but will be soon! thanks for stopping by, until next time take care! Sue

Made in Slovenia

Every now and again I get to chatting with a new customer. Most I will never meet but chatting over the internet you still get to feel you know them. On occasion one of those customers will share their work too! In this case I had the opportunity to chat with a woman from Slovenia and had the pleasure of seeing her work. Milojka sent me pictures of a few pieces she made with some of my spacers she purchased and also some work without. Her work is beautiful! She doesn't sell on line yet but if you are interested in her work you can reach her here:studiomkl16@gmail.com and she now has a facebook page for you to check out!! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Studio-mkl/211453558902794
Here are a few of her pieces............

This last one is definetly my favorite, I love the purple!
Till next time,
