A return to this blog?

Ahoy there folks....so guess who tried to take his blog to wordpress and then didn't really understand wordpress and then got distracted.....


Ahem, yes that would be me!

How are you all?

To say sorry here are lots of lovely photographs of things I have been making.

I will be back properly soon.

Glass Casting - experiment!

Just a quickie really, experimenting with using frit in a mould to cast pendants.

Shall be rather exciting methinks :)

I mixed frits of various consistancies together to see what effects could be created.

Much Purky love

First Encounters of a Glassy Kind

So, me being me, I took my work to market fairly rapidly... I have something of an intense R&D process!

These pictures are from the Frome Frost Fair on December 19th which was my last formal Purky engagement of the year.

This is the selection of Glass pieces I took with me.

I made the stand look as Purky as Possible :)

This lovely lady was the first person to purchase a piece of my glass work!

This piece sold as well :)





I had a lovely evening in Frome and hope to be asked back again soon.

Glassing Around

As you may have seen in my New Year Post I have finally invested in significant glass equipment (this actually happened in mid November!)

Here are some sneaky pics taken during my experiments

Cutting glass with a toyo cutter on a craft mat, I have now upgraded to a proper glass surface so I do not get splinters in my hand.

Layering up here with interesting inclusions to see what happened!

One of my first finished pieces, strung here on an eighteen inch sterling silver snake chain :)

More experimenting and pictures to come!
