Hello my Lovely Creatures..
I feel like this week has been a huge BBLLUURR...I'm finally home alone and can get some work done properly - like pics and updating and don't even get me started on the emails that I haven't responded to (but have read)...I will prob do some 'drive by' responses just so I can get caught up, so I apologize in advance if you are bummed by a quick reply - in fact I've always meant to ask (perhaps in a poll?) whether or not you want a long response that takes me awhile to get around to, or a quick 'hey' just so you know I saw your email...I used to get bummed by Corina's quick 'very nice' replies to emails I'd send her, but now that I'm getting bogged with email, I think I kinda understand why she did that...
Its not that I'm being rude or don't wanna talk, its mostly a matter of time and not having much of it...so, if you aren't offended by a 'hey cool' response, I will be happy to do that just so you know I saw ya...
I have 10 more beads painted and ready to form which will take at least a week to eform, but thankfully I have a bunch to show ya'll...I'm seriously thinking of listing them for sale here, and I promise they will not be $300 because they are not as precise as Kate Fowle's (she puts upwards of 18 hours of time into her eformed beads, so you are getting your money's worth!)...I polished them up yesterday (the copper oxidizes, I'll be coating the copper w/ wax I pick up today)...We were in the gun store yesterday looking for the specialty wax and there were more men hovering around in one spot than I've ever seen in a store in my life...guns- they get guys hot...
I've never seen anything like it!
I made LOADS of large organic beads last night, some better than others...but I was actually surprised I made so many...I just kept going and going...some will eform nicely, others will go into the bad bead jar...you can't win them all, and I haveta feed that jar or it starts grumbling...
So, I'm off to take pics, Lady is outside chasing squirrels and Darcy is crawling onto my chest so I'll hold her...its an active crazy morning here - I wouldn't have it any other way! back in a few...

I love these organics that you made! Are you going to put any of these babies up for sale? BTW- drive by wordings are good... better to get to the point and spare yourself some time when having a mountain of emails to respond to.
