We are so excited to be starting our new "Bead Tour" this month, traveling to sell our beads and even more fun, meeting all of you! This really is an unusual winter for all of us, and the way we are dealing with it is by :making even more beads, new ideas, fresh colors!

I have been working with tangerine, a delicious color that is so inviting, and Diane has been making incredible "orientals" based of fractuals. Which I think is a kind of math, I am not sure, but the results are amazing.

Oh! We also have new jewelry made from our beads, new exciting ideas....

If we are popping all over the place and seem  to have a super amount of energy in Fishklill and Clarksville, the reason is just because we have not done a bead show since December....and for me while healing from my breast cancer, I have not done a show since October....So we are chomping at the bit to see what you have made, chat with you and to delight in our shared interest : BEADS!!

My favorite saying comes from Mardi Gras : It is all about the Beads.

Because of course, it is!



* We now have our Tiny Treasure beads individually, so you can buy one, or buy as many as you like!. Delicious colors and you get to pick, match and create!! Priced at $1 each!!!!


Lampwork beads are elegant, fun, funky, they can express every mood...and you are supporting 2 local artists! One lampwork bead can change the flavor of a whole necklace, turing it into a one of a kind piece!

Tax Exempt Information: If you will be using a Tax ID when you purchase beads, please know that law says we have to have a copy of your Tax ID that we keep. We are going to make every effort to keep a log so once we have a copy, you won't have to keep bringing us a new one and we hope this makes life easier for all of us, including the tax man.


We have begun a blog, and I will give you the address, but
 i am not sure if it will hyperlink...

Beads have always been a part of our lives, from childhood "pop" beads to teenage Hippie beads, graduating to semi- precious stones. Then one decade we learned.....fire,torch, rods of glass from Murano, kiln...We Can Make Our Own Beads!! Lampworking quickly overtook our lives in exciting ways, our passion, focus and dream.
We have both been making our own Lampwork Beads for about 12 years now, learning from various teachers and from experimentation with each other.

And Yes, we really are Sisters!!!


    
Places beads have taken us!  Since we have been making beads, we have visited some wonderful places because of beads. This past weekend was a show in Niagara Falls! Ok, it was March and yes, it was very cold at night with the Falls spray, but how invigorating, how powerful!
Diane works out of her studio in the subarbs of Philadelphia, her work encompassing percision and chemical reactions of color.
Denise works out of her home in the Wilkes -Barre area enjoying the tapestry of molten glass colors.
