I'm really determined to get some things on Etsy, so I've been trying to add something new everyday. This is what I put on tonight. You can see it here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/kybeadmaker. While making beads tonight I burned the palm of my hand, where my thumb is. YOWZERS that hurt. I am now soaking my hand in a combo of Aloe and ice water. Usually works for me. At least I didn't stick my hand directly in the flame this time. I laid it down on a graphite marver that I had been using on a hot bead for about 20 min.....did I mention that graphite is a wonderful conductor of heat?
What a pretty bracelet. Nice to have you back Harriet I enjoy reading your blog. You are a talented writer amongst other things.
ReplyDeleteHarriet - you and I have been at the torch almost the same number of years. I started March, 1998.
ReplyDeleteWe shouldn't STILL be burning ourselves.
