A splash of Orange & Black

I had a request for Oregon State colors, so I sat down and played with the Orange and black. The top and bottom bracelets are encased in clear so the orange is a bit lighter. Its more old school. The middle bracelets are not encased so the orange is darker. Can you say OOOooo SSSsss UUUuuu

For the Beaver Fans out there!!

more...Gaffer, the other white meat!

here is the new color Chalcedony. Lots oc color to be had with this glass. Im not to sure yet how to control what I want. But is sure fun to play with the oxygen mix and see what happens. The only draw back is the kiln takes too long to cool down!

Gaffer, the other white meat!

So I won some Gaffer glass a year ago at the Eugene Class School Flame off. I set it in vase next to my torch and never played with it. I told myself that I just didn't have enough of the colors to really play with or risk the mix up with my 104 glass. Last week I found my self on a trip so close to Kent Washington that I had to stop in and fill out my color pallet. So now I have more then enough. My next question was how will I keep it separated? Well check this out...These trays are stove burner covers in a rectangle shape, I got them for .49 cents each at a local thrift shop! They are the perfect size. Then I zip tied some cooking cooling racks in a stack to use as a mini shelf system. This will make it easy to play..
