Well everyone is sleeping in this morning!! Here are a couple things a I got accomplished yesterday. The girl is holding a string of hearts and this is the 2nd mouse I've made. The 1st one was a challange bead in Corina's class.

Wow George!! Those are awesome marbles!!! My fav is the blue one!

Anne -- too cute! Have you got a story about these two characters? (Assuming you have read Mike E's thread on creating a setting for your characters?) They are both just perfect!

)

George - is is so good to see ya marbles, didn't you have carpel tunnel surgery (or something like that?) recently? Both those marbles are intriguing!

Here's my entry -- actually made it a while ago... I haven't made anything for quite a few days due to ~life~ getting in the way and am missing ze torch. By the time I can turn it on, I am too tired for anything except for surfing WC! <g>! blame Ann and her inspiration, (and Robin Poff too!) here's a "donni character"

Donni I like your little character!! I really don't have a story for my dolls except Corina made me do it!!

The very 1st doll I made was for Corina's Spotlight entry for "The Inner Child" inspired from a wood "doll" that I used to make and sell. The mouse was from her class last weekend that was her challange for us to make. It was funny though because at dinner everyone pulled a slip of paper to see what they were going to make, an elephant, mouse, cat, human, etc. Well I pulled the human so I had to trade with someone!! LOL!

Anne - very cute as always!
George - fab marbles, have to agree with Anne, the blue one is my fav as well.
Donni - very cute little guy there!

Here are my sad attempts from last night.
First my attempt for the weekly challenge of add handles to it... I was so happy with it, until I took it from the mandrel and the bottom popped and a piece cracked off. (Two views of the same vessel)
Gypsysoul, posed a real challenge for me. Turquoise goddess with teal hair, and light purple goddess with dark purple hair. Bleh.. had to mix my own colours and I'm NOT happy with either of them. Back to the drawing board. I think I'll pick up some glass this evening at my suppliers. (Two views of 2 goddess beads)
And finally, some hearts. No they aren't going to Corina's challenge, I'm still working on that one. The first one is pink with ruby gold stringer, the middle one is my mixed purple, mixed periwinkle (tried making light purple), with white, then twisted with a stringer like all the directions say to do, all I can say its bleh to stringer twisting. The last one was just a mix of periwinkle, turquoise and trans teal. swirled and moved and shaped into the heart with a blue flower on it it.

Hope everyone has a great glass day!
Hugs from Holland,
Sarah

Good morning - everyone's beads are great. I love the marbles too! Here is my first attempt at some lentils with the CBS and one of those flimsy mashers (for the larger bead).
