New Beads on Ebay

I've just listed a new set of beads on Ebay made with my favorite glass. It is Reichenbach 106 which has a lot of metal in it, and the more times it is heated and touched to brass the more colors come out. Nothing flashy like 108, but beautiful soft greys and blues mixed with carmel. I had a tiny chunk of DaVinci II that I pounded into frit and rolled them in it, which came out great.

Historic Day

I am still floating on a cloud of euphoria after last night's victory. My brother said it well, "I feel like I have been snatched from in front of a moving train." We also re-elected our governor Christine Gregoire, so all around things are great. Bad news about Prop 8 in California tho, that it a huge set back.

Beautiful Fall

Today the leaves started to fall rapidly with wind and rain so I took a few more photos before they were all gone. This is the most beautiful fall since we moved here in 2003. The underside of the Japanese Maple is from the Kubota gardens the rest are from my neighborhood.
