Some more ornaments and a couple of bubblers from yesterday. Im trying to get an early start on christmas orders this year so i dont get swamped in December.

[PyroChixRock]

Loving those ornaments

[Zukie]

Another round of ornaments, and a turtle pendy for a Christmas gift.

[PyroChixRock]

Nice! That's cool you are doing them in sets. They seem to sell better that way.

[PyroChixRock]

Also you are making me feel like a lagger.

[Zukie]

Yes Misha. Everyone seems to want 3 to 6 at a time, so I do a handful of one style and then change up to different color combos an/or shapes and do another batch, and so on.

[GhostWorks]

Love it all thinking I'm going to make ornaments for gifts this year. Thanks for the inspiration!

[Zukie]

It seems over the last 3 weeks a ton of new people are seeing my work and are requesting various things. Hell, I had a guy contact me the other day saying he found my work on IG and tracked me down through FB. I dont even have an IG account nor have i ever visited the site, so that was kinda out of left field for me. Apparently he lives about 45 minutes from me and has been dabbling with lampwork on and off for the last year, and wants to get together so i can help him out with a some things. I also had 2 people contact me last week dying for me to come to some type of art fair and set up a booth and do demos and sell ornaments pendants and such. Im pretty overwhelmed by all of this.

[GhostWorks]

That's kickass! Art fairs would fun!

[Zukie]

I was skeptical about it at first, but my girl convinced me to go when she told me, " just think about it, you will be the only one there playing with fire"

[zach]

id go for sure sounds like a good opportunity and I think im going to have to give some ordainments a try yours look pretty good.

[PyroChixRock]

Sounds like you have Lady Luck on your side lately. Treat her well.

[Zukie]

the ornament orders just keep coming.

[PyroChixRock]

I am such a lagger on ornaments this year! Thanks for picking up my slack.

[Zukie]

a few recent things ive done in the middle of making ornaments. The peanut sculpture was a big hit here in town, beings I live in the "peanut capitol of the world".

[Zukie]

Fire and water shot glass I made for my pops and my second attempt at a basic Sherlock spoon. I got a little bit of devitrification on the inside of the bend but overall im pretty pleased with it.

[LRG]

Nice like the shot glass I make jager bomb glasses for my drunk buddys.On that lock just get a tiny really oxidized flame and polish that crap off!

[Zukie]

I made another sherly last night an it did the same thing, but this time I did what you said with the oxidizing flame and it came right out. Thanks.
