"I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me!"It's been quite a while between posting, but I thought it was time revive my blog and get back to you great folks.
Creatively, I've been in a bit of a funk for several months--since last summer actually-- and wasn't sure how to break out of it.
After much thought, soul searching and just generally taking a break from most things glass, I have been able to recapture my desire and creativity.
Over the past few months, I've been preparing to switch from using the soft-glass that I learned on to the harder Borosilicate. There are a number of reasons for this.
- I love the wide range of reactive colors available to me in this glass.
- I needed a new challenge creatively to prevent me from just making the same thing over and over again.
- Boro gives me much more freedom over the types of items that I can make--not just jewelry but sculpture, marbles, paperweights etc. (If I have enough heat, that is).
- It was just time for a change.
So, now that the switch has been made, I hope you enjoy the pictures of my latest creations in the new medium.
Also, be sure to check out my Facebook Page for Burning Scentsations!
Several new items have been added my Esty Shop over the past few days, so please check out the all-Boro items now!
Have a great night!
