It's Spring, and I Love Green!


Wonderful group of folks from Etsy have created a Twitter mutual admiration team - check out the lovelies in lampwork and seaglass from this week's featured member: Renee Suich. I absolutely love the way she has combined found sea glass (well, Lake Erie glass) and her beautiful lampwork in the piece pictured (click on the pic to take you straight there). A perfect piece for a spring day, don't ya think?

Clue me in: What's lampwork?

lampwork is the when sticks of glass are melted directly by torch and manipulated into beads and forms like animals, flowers etc. absolutely amazing, if you ask me. I can't imagine the kind of control it takes. Besides Renee's shop, check out another of my favorites, Studio Marcy: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=34983

Love the design. Very simple, yet dramatic.
