Picasso's Plantation



OH MY STARS!!! Look at these beads!!

I was thrilled when I opened the kiln tonight. They new beads are as cool as I hoped they would be. These are "Picasso's Plantation".

I couldn't resist, I had to clean them and photograph them right away. I am chomping at the bit to hear what you think of these. You can already tell I am really excited about them!! I decided to mix some cubes and plaids. I haven't done plaids in a while and while I was in VA I made one. It refreshed my "plaid" juices and this reactive silver glass was just the ticket. Then testing out a few cubes too. They are "iced" cubes with partical encasing which is a) really hard to do and 2) looks really cool!! I know you all went gonzo for the last set of ice cubes so I hope you find these are thrilling.

Okay, I am missing LOST so I gotta dash... but send me your thoughts on the new beads and go BID BID BID!

Thanks Girls!!

Hey Donni, welcome to my BLOG! The "ice cube" design is one I explored in January. See it here: http://kabsconcepts.blogspot.com/2007/01/ice-cubes.html They are encased nuggets. The silver cubes are high fire Greek Ceramic beads dipped in pure silver from mykonosbeads.com.

Hey Chrissie, I think the colors worked better in these then the test beads because with my bulk tank of gas, I can control the flame better. I couldn't "turn it up" on the small tanks we used. So, yep, I am thrilled!!

I hope these do well!
