Bashi's Glass Works

[Bashi]

Hello everyone... I am new to this forum so I thought I would introduce myself and give people a chance to view some of my recent work. I am open to any constructive criticism or maybe even some compliments :)
For the last year or so I have focused on my pendant making skills; Although I am always experimenting with new techniques and ideas. Hopefully my future posts will be a contribution to this website and I am looking forward to sharing and gaining knowledge from all you "glass addicts" out there.

Welcome to the gldg! I dig your pendant! how's eugene? I miss it, but I'm diggin portland so far!

[Bashi]

Thanks Misha...Eugene is still a cool place to live. It seems like a lot of my glass-blowing friends have made the move to Portland. I don't blame them...It seems like everyone and there mother is a blower around here. :ohwell:

[PyroChixRock]

Yeah...that's for sure. I didn't mind that so much as just not having a plan B in Eugene if we needed, so after the raids we moved here. We've never needed the plan B luckily, and are settling into portland well. My mom moved back here too so we actually have some family around for once in 8 years.

You should try to make it up to one of the portland gatherings! :D

[Bashi]

Yeah...good thinking. I actually spent a year and a half in California after the raids and when I moved back I began my "plan B"....which actually has turned out being great(Marketing my pendant collections to stores outside of Eugene).
I am glad that you finally have some family up there. I know having my Mom here in Eugene has been a major factor in me staying around.
I would love to make it up to Portland for a gathering some time(Sounds fun)...I haven't been up there for a while.

O.K....So I just read the how to make a mini gallery thread. That is a really cool feature(Thanks Justin). Here are a few of my switchback pendants(I like to call them "Lotus" pendants for marketing reasons...I think that has a better ring to it)....anyhow.....Here they are!
