These are lousy photos, but it's a small miracle there are photos at all.  You do not want to know how many attempts it took to get these online, or how many computers.  Or how many times a program crashed while I was trying to import, edit, and upload them. 

But on to the shinies.

Round, Square, Triangle.

A set of three earrings, made from cane glass.  These are tiny enough that you could wear them all in one ear if you happen to have three piercings there.

Stuff With STUFF In It! - CLAIMED

The title is all KaLea's fault, although she was talking about the lodolite I got recently and not this, which is rutilated quartz.  Only instead of having long needles throughout the entire stone, it has one cluster of very short needles and other stuff in one spot, which looks nifty when viewed through the stone.


It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time
ALSO CLAIMED

This is from one of my first few batches of dichroic glass, when I was still getting the hang of things.  I was experimenting with frit (small-to-tiny pieces of broken glass, basically) and confetti (paper-thin pieces of colored glass) and I layered up this piece with black opaque glass and purple confetti and clear dichroic frit, but I must've cut my top layer of clear glass too small and also not noticed that it was sitting on an angle -- probably because the frit I have is in varying sizes -- and so the top layer slid halfway off the piece during the firing.  Which is... interesting, but not the look I was going for.  I cut off the extra clear glass and ground the edges smooth, but the frit is exposed on about half of this and the edges ground and not firepolished as they usually are, and this is generally a very imperfect piece of glass.  Interesting, but imperfect.

I'm going to go eat dinner, but comment below if you want to claim one of these for a swap.  There's info around here somewhere about how this all works, but I'm not going to dig it up because  I want to get away from the computer before it explodes, and also I want a drink now and maybe a nap before bed.  Pass the vodka, please.
