Encased Glass Flower Drop Pendants

With Fall approaching I thought these pendants would be pretty with some soft colors reflecting the season. Maybe if wish for it hard enough Fall will come early for us this year! 😀 It’s definitely a lot cooler in the mornings but by mid afternoon we’re still reaching the high 90’s 😦

New Drop Pendant & Gazing Ball Necklaces

Life is getting busy again with the new school year approaching. But you wouldn’t know Summer is coming to an end with the way this heat wave is dragging on. We just try staying indoors in the air conditioning most of the time, and count down the days till Fall arrives (which for us usually isn’t until mid-October).

In the meantime, here are some beads I managed to make one cool morning before my studio reached unbearable temperatures:

Sea Flowers
Sea Flowers – petite gazing ball pendant
Kaleidoscope

Dog & Cat Murrini (& More!) Bead Necklaces

I was able to catch a cool day recently so I hopped on the torch and made these fun beads for my Gazing Ball pendant necklaces. I had been away from the torch for so long and it felt great to be able to get back to it! 😀

I am checking the weather report daily hoping for another break in this heat to be able to play with glass again 🙂

For now, here is the latest batch just listed on Etsy:

SECRET GARDEN
PRETTY KITTY
