Society of Glass Beadmakers - Norcal

Yesterday I attended my first SGB-Norcal (Society of Glass Beadmakers-Northern California) event, the annual holiday party. What a great group of people! I don't know why it's taken me so long to catch on to the community aspect of lampworking. It has always just been something I pursued in my own little world. That necessary place of creative focus has been primarily a solitary experience. But there are many of us, united by the expression of our creative impulses in a shared medium. And once I lifted my head and took a good look around I found a community of big-hearted, fun and creative people who share this passion for working in glass. What a delightful discovery!

Pomegranate Glass is now on Etsy.com

I have decided to go ahead and open an Etsy.com Pomegranate Glass storefront in addition to my Artfire site. Two stores = more exposure! I'm thinking the Etsy store focus will be on the sale of my lampwork beads for the jewelry designer and the Artfire focus will be more on finished jewelry using my beads. Any thoughts on that?

There are now links to both storefronts in the right hand sidebar. Check them out!
