Hello my friends, December is here to stay (like the song..."our love is here to stay... ) until the 31. I'm celebrating this cheerful month posting this bright funky necklace with some of my more bright and funky disks/discs beads. I'm busy at my store, and going through many directions with different and unexpected plans, I'll let you know about them as soon as I'm able to. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season.

Another trio of beauties, you can wear 1, 2, or 3. I like them all together! (They look much better in person!)... crystals and rare beads, asymmetric design and my glass discs beads...

What a wonderful movie: "The Dark Side of the Heart". I usually feel identified with the feminine character of the movies, except in this one (and also except in "The Son of the Bride", where I totally felt the same as the main male actor). In honor of the movie this gorgeous necklace with my lampwork glass beads. I've melted in fire the glass, forming rare and unique discs/disks, with many colors inside and then I've composed a long attractive black unusual piece of art. I've included a heart pendant, Swarovski Crystals and Czech glass beads, the clasp is Sterling Silver. Enjoy!

This is my first group of discs beads, super funky, imperfect on purpose, crazy and colorful... Since I've created this necklace, I keep making discs, different styles and techniques, always attractive with color everywhere, chunky and unique... I have so many sets now, with extravagant designs and flamboyant attitude!!! More pictures to come soon!

I'm new at this!

Well, somehow I've decided to begin blogging. It seems it's the coolest thing to do in the Internet world today. I was feeling lonely at my Website, but, worst than that, I don't know any longer how to update it, since my new computer doesn't get along with the program I had to do so. Plus, I want to simplify my life... I've decided my blog will be the home page where all the news regarding my glass creations will be posted, and of course, sparingly, I will also add personal ideas/flashes/etc. For example, I'll give you a hint of what's going on now: I'm working on my soon to come to the light book of poems in Spanish. It will probably be an E-Book, and I'm sure I'll have millions of you getting ready to buy it!... I will not be posting long updates, as a matter of fact I thought about naming this Blog "The one sentence blog", since I don't have the patience and time that a long blog requires, that might be another reason why I prefer to write poems instead of long stories, and I always thought that as good as one might be describing feelings and thoughts, the written word will never be as accurate as we would like it to be, and I am a perfectionist, so, I choose the shortest way of expression. Nevertheless, I am so imperfect in my perfectionism! My natural language is Spanish, that might be another reason why I don't blog in English. Anyway, welcome to my blog, and enjoy the drive! Of course, I'll try to improve it as much as I'm able to, I do have some links on your right hand in the screen, and a picture of my beauty at 12 or 13, something like that. I love you all, Laura.
PS. I'm still working uploading pictures at Flickr, a long way to go yet, but I did manage to post a lot of them, I will be adding more very soon... if you are curious about them, come and visit me often!!!

Aquarelle Tiles Etched in Paris

I made this necklace with my glass beads last year, but I didn't take the picture then. Since I'm uploading photos at Flickr (still a long way to go!), I had to honor this one...

Hang in there!

Sometimes, images are more than words!!!
