We love what we do, we talk (nonstop) about what we do... we want others to try it and fall in love with it too.  Over the years - I've always enjoyed watching closely as my students embark on their first session - watching for telltale signs of what's going on in their minds.  

My friend, Carol tried her hand at it last week and as I had hoped, displayed the signs of being bitten by the fire bug.  She easily made a little pile of round beads - I was flattered to realize she knew the different names of my beads - and requested to learn to make a certain type by name!

Watch closely as she begins to wind the glass - how her eyes widen... and the rest is history.  
If you've never melted glass - it's a must for your bucket list!!
