I don't hate you, in fact, your video reminded me of when I lived on the coast of Texas (now inland)! Walks on the beach, shell and driftwood searching and the sound of the waves!

Oh, thanks for posting this! The beach is my favorite color palate. Can hardly wait to see what you make from the inspiration. Enjoy CA! I have a vintage painting of the mission La Purisma near Santa Barbara but I've never visited in person. If you get there, too, snap some photos for me?

This set began with a rod of Moretti glass called EDP..a glorious dense pink-y purple that needs special working in the flame in order to achieve that color...along with a selection of powdered glasses and a wad of pure copper leaf. (Please excuse my love of run on sentences. I've tried to stop using them but they just creep back in every so often..feel free to stop and take a breath whenever you feel the need.) The result is riotous colors ..a tsunami of greens and aquas and pinks that weren't there before. These are simple beads, rounds ~nothing special and most beginners start here...but this set is precisely the reason I love glass. Set of 6 encased (to magnify and hi-light the colors beneath) rounds available now on EBay . 'Perfect Storm'
