Sweet Pea Wins!

Sweet Pea was the inspiration for Frums Glass Menagerie. She is always in the studio ready to help make stuff to donate to her favorite dog rescue organizations. She is a dog clothes super model, often working for mere biscuits. We are proud of her.

Today, a bit prouder, as she is the photo contest winner in a fun, political themed fundraiser for Italian Greyhound Rescue Fund. She even won a necklace, which she plans to re donate to an upcoming rescue fundraiser.

Please visit this link to see the all the members of her party, the RePUPlicans, and to read about her. Check out the all the participants of the RePUPlicans and the BIRDocrats by clicking on the bone and the bird at the bottom of the page. NOTE: Sweet Pea's brother, Farful shown as a rePUPlican is actually a registered BIRDocrat. He blames his sister for this mistake, but stays true to being an Official Piddler General.

Nibblefest Art Contest

Here's my first entry in the "Nibblefest Art Contest." I was delighted that it placed second. I painted it to illustrate a brindle dog and this poem:

My Dog Jack

My dog Jack is brindle and white.

He came to me on a November night.

He was found alone somewhere in Kent, part of his life had already been spent.

Unwanted by someone, I don't no why.

He so lovely, you wont pass him by.

I love my dog jack, we are best mates.

He watches me while i finish my plate.

Some for me and lots for you, that is what i will always do.

Now here you are Jack, I will do you no harm, cos in this house, is kindness and calm.

Take a Peek...

....inside my kiln. Here is the next step of my painting on this small batch of glass pendants. This photo was taken after the 2nd firing inside my kiln. I'm happy with how the french bulldog is coming along.

More Enamel Fun

More painting on glass with my new enamel paints. The second photo shows a batch of pendants that were painted and kiln annealed once. They will continue to receive multiple layers of paint and fire polishing.

I am so excited to have our newest collars arrived today! They were wrapped like a pretty gift and very well made with an amazing attention to detail.
