Hello everyone! I'm posting because I'm planning a revamp of this blog and a possible website in the future. If you'd like to receive notices of new beads for  sale in the Etsy shop (or the website, possibly), grab the RSS feed and plug it into your favorite reader! I'll be posting here about available sets and beads as they come out of the kiln and have their glamour shot sessions :) I hope you'll visit often and let me know you stopped by! 

I can't believe I went and torched today and forgot to come announce the winner! Voting was over last night at midnight and our winner is Sheila Douglas! Her pooch will be so PROUD! :D

Sheila has won a $50 credit to my shop, I can't wait to see how she uses it! :D

Thanks everyone for voting, I hope we'll be holding a new challenge soon :)

Good afternoon everyone! I've got some absolutely lovely pieces to share with you from the participants in this month's challenge :D  We combined January and February to get a chance to work with some hearts. The designers came up with some beautiful pieces, so let's get started!

The winner of this vote will receive a $50 credit to my shop, Flamekeeper on Etsy, so good luck to all our participants! :D (I have to apologize for all the formatting errors here on the blog, I can't figure out how to get  rid of all the extra lines! :) )
