Countdown …
But first, special thanks to JP from Tattered Time and her Garden Stake Whimsy Tutorial. I love using a nib pen for drawing on glass! It is so much easier for me to control my lines (vs using a paint brush) – and her recipe for black enamel is well worth the tutorial price. I …

Wowzers …

Spent a fair amount of energy plotting out my listings for the shop … Maybe I’m making it more complicated but … Wow! Today, I took the time …
Still Learning …
We had another vitrigraph pull this week … We’ve got a nice variety of cane going – while we continue to learn what to do and what not to do! Now, if SOMEONE would just finish making my cane-chopper! I played with a few recipes, too. We made tahini – which gives our 25+ year …
