Melting stuff

What's not to love? Who's a lampie then?

Not guilty milud

Hi I'm Cornish and I haven't melted glass for nearly a week. I may need to go and sort my glass rods out to get my fix.

Ooh Cornish I feel your pain, it's been 2 weeks for me now! But I'm doing a project for MJ so I'm not sat on my thumbs. Am going to have to purchase new glass to make up for it I think

Meeee! I do, I'm a glass melting addict ;D

I'm a lampaholic too!

Oooh Jolene I've just seen your profile pic, scrumptious! And possibly a clue as to who you are elsewhere?
Maybe we should all have a little show and tell!!

Yes Ofc BUT only once they are ready for sale to the public,, I dont enjoy publishing pictures of janky shizzle (which is kinda where the goblets are at now) Few more days and Im sure Ill be posting titbits up on my Fb profile & here Im struggling to cope with the 60mm x 6 mm tubing Im working with, (each tube weighs 25kgs) and pulling points off that hurts right now
You can see my other work up on my Foxglass website

Just been on your website flamemonkey, lovely stuff.

shucks thanks,, its all Boro, There's tons of stuff that never makes the website or pics,, lol I dont do pics of my cabuchons as most of those are private order. I dont take pics of any custom work either.. goodness im as mad as a badger..

PixieWillow love your work.

Why don't you take pictures of any of your custom work?

I always find it nice to keep an album/folder of all your work so you can always look back, and sometimes it gives me inspiration for my next project. It’s also nice when you go to shows, to allow people to have a nosey of what you have done, it's even a talking point to my next commision.

I keep saying this all over this forum lol

To add your links, go to your profile and your signature tab and add your links appropriate to your work.

Yes I'm a Glass Addicted Lampie and it's been 7 days since my last fix..

I really enjoyed my taster at working with glass..must do so again sometime eh Mooch

Sure thing x

ooh, careful Rowanwolf, it's down to Mooch that my obsession started, she made such gorgeous beads I had to try for myself and now look at me! Trigger finger here blew far too much on glass this morning

However, despite my naughtyness, I'm dying to get my glass and to try the new cool colours I've ordered - yay!!! I wanted to try some more DH stuff but I really can't afford to get bundles of the stuff, so I'll be off to offmandrel for the odd rodd soon I expect.

Can I make ONE forum suggestion that will save ALL you sofites TONS of MONIES.

Group Buy from someone like DH,, you wont believe the discounts avaliable to you when you have a group of you contributing together.

Buy buying all my glass for the next 6 months I managed to buy 35lbs of Trautman Experimentals and Colour tubing for 65% off standard retail price.. Make a sticky topic with this in until you have enough peeps to hit the discount orders.

I'm already in love with it Tinker LOL
No chance of it becoming an obsession for me however, I do not have space or the money to go into it myself

Flamemonkey, I just took a look at your website and thought I'd say it's the most eye-catching and interesting site I've seen in the jewellery world so far. Nice. I just LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVE the marbles you have on there. Would like one of those for myself but,naughty man,you have no prices on the website. I have,however,now discovered your etsy shop and have favourited you for future reference.

Jolene, really liking your avatar beads but I have no idea who you are or where to locate your shop (I assume such beautiful beads)

I'd love to give lamping a shot and enjoyed having a little play at Flame-off this spring. But I echo Rowanwolfs comments's feelings. No room and too small a bank balance too

Gillian you'll find Jolene on Etsy as well, she's Kizbitz glass she also does some awesome polymer beads, and lots of other glassy supplies like my fav shards.

Please feel free to shout me on facebook through our Fox Glass page. We sold lots of our etsy stock and havent had the time to refill it but I do have a nice selection of marbles currently in house. Mostly should be up on our Fb page too, but to give you an idea they start from £10 and run up from there to roughly £175 for a 3inch 2lb dichroic vortex beast if theres anything your interested in then message me.
