My life changed in 2010 when, at the request of my daughter, we attended a beginner glass bead making class at Bavin Glassworks in BC for her 16th birthday. I really did not expect this art form to take over my world, but since that day seven years ago now, so much has happened. Of course with a new hobby comes new friends that are like minded and share the same interests. Some of these ladies have now become my best friends and I am so grateful to have them in my life!
This is such an amazing art form to learn. I encourage anyone who would like to try something truly beautiful for the soul to give it a try. There is nothing more peaceful and relaxing to me. It involves melting glass rods at a torch to a molten buttery state and then using balance and gravity with your mandrel to form, shape and create your glass bead. It is absolute wow!
