Tea Party

Effetre white rolled in Tea Party frit, with watercolour effect flowers.

Pinks and greens -what could be more summery?

This blend reminds me of my Granny's china tea cups.

Herb Garden

Herb Garden frit on 96 COE opal white. Clear glass dipped in frit, wound and encased.

This is a really useful blend of opaque and transparent greens - a really nice background for florals and nicely dimensional on its own. I use this one a lot!

Coast

Coast frit on CIM Glacier, encased with clear. Clear glass dipped in frit, wound and encased. Work this one cool to preserve the gold sparkle.

I've been using my own frit blends for a while now, and some people have asked if they are available, so I've decided to share! Supplies will be limited to start with, but hopefully there will be more, and lots of new blends too.

This one is called Coast, and is a pretty earthy blend with a hint of gold sparkle.

Forever Autumn

So - I wanted to make myself a necklace. It was supposed to be the sky, from dusk through to dawn. Trouble was, I didn't have a clasp that looked right, except for this leaf, so now it's an autumn thing!

Flower Garden

Oh, I'm a bad blogger!! I've been Missing in Action 'cos I've been working out how to make flowers that look like they've been painted. I'm getting there, but it's addictive - just one more set - or I wonder what they'd look like in this colour - I need therapy!!
