Busy, Busy Christmas


I am not sure where the first two weeks of December went, in fact, I am trying to figure out where 2011 went! I sure have stayed busy!
Wanted to do a quick post to show you some new things I have been working on.
I also, finally, created a Facebook for Bahama Dawn. If you scroll down this page you will see the button on the right. Click on it & *like* it please. Right after Christmas I am going to be running a discount special specifically through that page.
Back in November the awesome Cassie Donlen, from Glass Beadle came to Abaco and spent three days helping me with my glass bead making. I can't thank her enough! She was awesome and I learned TONS of great tips and tricks. It was my first real class in lampworking! Before that I had fumbled along, taught myself, and made a lot of mistakes.
Thanks again Cassie!!!
So here are some of my new creations......
These are just a few of the beads Cassie and I made together.  Some are hers and some are mine in this photo.


I learned how to make these hearts which have been very popular and I LOVE making them!


I am also having a blast stamping on metal, especially creating little scenes.  Will have lots more pieces with these stamped pieces as I get a chance to put together and finish pieces.


Also having fun making these puppy pendants!! Need to work on a kitty pendant also!  I am selling these for $20, and all the money goes to help the animals of Abaco.


Tree of Life Pendants are another new creation which have been popular also.


My final little show and tell are these sea glassy beads.  I make the bead, then etch it and it looks like sea glass!


Thanks for stopping by to see my new goodies!!
Have a great week!
