Back at it!

I am happy to report that I've finally got the OttLite situation sorted out.  It turned out that the replacement bulb I rushed out to buy at Home Despot was not an appropriate bulb for an OttLite.  Now that I have the right bulb - VOILA!

We have light.  And it turns out, I can get a fairly decent picture on the fly.




I said fairly decent.  Observe, the new technique I learned today, perfect for rings!  Sadly, it means I need to beef up my stock of size 8 beads, as I only have a few.  I did put together this combo, to learn the technique.  Needs a little work, but not bad!

It would make a nice bracelet, too.

Today was actually quite productive.  I finished a bracelet.



I made a special order ring.



I made the new style ring, and I started something that could be a ring or a bracelet.  I haven't decided yet.  What do you think?




It was a good day.  I even worked in the garden, and took care of a few other errands!
