NEW GLASS BEAD

Hi Everyone!
It is so stormy  outside today. I am thankful it is rain and NOT snow. LOL we were going to head out to Eugene today but decided to just stay in.
Good day to make Mexican Wedding cookies so that is what I will do.
I know all of you are busy with creating, shows, and the holidays. I am kind of looking forward to some down time. hmmm I wonder when that will happen???
Yesterday I was at Brown Dog Antiques here in Florence, OR on hwy 101 where I have a case of bead art. A few of my artists friends have also obtained cases there and finally we have a place in Florence that is catering to art. My good friend, Denise Sanders, is setting up two cases of her amazing glass and metal work. Denise and her husband Mori have been in the beading world as long as I have. We are the old timers and it is always fun to talk about the good ol days before beading magazines and huge bead shows. Anyway I spotted a piece of glass that Denise was going to put on display. She took it out and  handed it to me and said, "It's yours." OMG!!! I tried,really, I tried to pay for it! I love this glass. The photo doesn't come close to doing it justice. The colors are deep and remind me of the earths core. Ohhh you know I have seen the earths core so many times. LOL hee hee hee.... but what I imagine it to be. 
So here is my newest piece of glass. I can't wait to work with it.
Have a great day everyone
Here is the front
