Blog Fabulous!

My favorite lampworker in the whole world, Moon Stumpp, has honored me with the Blog Fabulous award! Thanks Moon:) You can visit her fabulous blog here - http://moonstumpp.blogspot.com I've been meaning to tell you all about her, so now seems like the time. First things first.

It's now my turn to nominate some blogs that I think are faulous. I think all of the blogs over at the Women's Blogger Directory are special, so I would like to pass on this award to the jewelry and fashion blogs over there, considering those are two subjects very close to my heart :

Rochelle at Shoe Porn -
http://shoe-porn.blogspot.com/ I bet you can figure out what that blog is about.


Karleen at Vibrant Jewels -
http://vibrantjewels.blogspot.com/ - she's definatly got a way with beads.


Alison at Ali Bali Jewellery -
http://www.alibalijewellery.blogspot.com/ her blog is not only about her creations, but other Etsy artists as well.


Congrats girls - now its your turn to pass on the award :)



Back to Moon's gorgeous glass. The reason her work is my favorite is because she is always exploring new ideas in shape, colors, glass and techniques. Each one of her beads is handcrafted over a torch flame and then embellished. The process of just making the bead is difficult enough, but then she puts so much attention into every bead the way a painter applies paint onto a canvas that each one is like a little masterpiece.


I've recently added these designs with her beads to the HDJ website. You can click on any of the pictures to be taken to that page for purchase or more info.
