Hi!  Welcome to my studio.   

After years of working in a small cramped area, I now have a wonderful work space (24x24)!  Set on our property with a creek bordering 2 sides, it's a great place to work and a short commute. 

My super husband did most of the work  to make this an all-in-one shop.  Separate areas for kiln working, beadmaking, bead cleaning, photo studio, sandblasting and jewelry making have filled every little space---And we thought we couldn't possibly use all this room!

I still use a Minor Burner Torch and love it just as much as when I first got it.   These torches are readily available at most all glass suppliers.   I have upgraded my oxygen system from the heavy tanks to an oxygen generator from OGSI . 

I also have a natural gas system that hooks right into our home gas line that's safer and burns cleaner than propane.  It's the Safe-T-Gas Torch Booster from G-TEC . 

My kiln is a computer controlled Fuser/Annealer from Glasshive, so that I'm assured that all my beads are properly annealed.  

Below, you'll see the corner where I do most of my work.
