That is awesome!

Also, one more cross promotion and you get the Facebook TMP badge! :)

nice. My stuff does not sell well on facebook. I got a few local people to come over and buy stuff from facebook though. But nothing in the auctions.
$75 each is a lot of money.

um, yeah these went for a tad more then $70, but usually flowers end up auctioning for between $50 and $80, and the bigger opal mibs i like to get $135 for. dude that bought 5 got a small break on the price though.

Never tried to make a flower marble. Yours are nice.
I only know rainbow marbles and stuff like that. I took a marble making workshop once.
But my other glass is what I really sell.

when i first started blowing glass i used to think man the marble guys are killing it .
later i realized that they do take ALOT of time esp when you start getting very picky about never making air bubbles or encasing scum etc.
now its not unusual for me to spend 2- 3 days 3- 6 hours each session for a marble id be happy to get 125-150 $ for.

I think this guy is killing it on facebook! That is hard to do. Making them is only half the work.

this, to a T. i skim ALL my clear (be it for a lens or component) and i can't stand bubbles in the backing....so quite a few end up as cannon fodder. hourly, i still do ok, of course i'd like to make more but who wouldn't lol.

all sold. thanks everyone. somebody did some major advertising for me on FB (still not sure who, but i'm forever grateful), now i have work through the next month at least (as i have to go around a full time day job....which is looking more and more like i can quit) and will be busier then a one legged man in an ass kicking contest.
