Reichenbach Colors


A plethora of color charts and color sample pages can be found all over the web for most any glass color in the 104 palette. Unfortunately I have been unable to find a similar resource for the 96 palette.


I've been transitioning a lot of my glass studio over to 96 coe and am slowly building my color stash. Most of the time I go in "blind" when making a glass purchase because there may or may not be a picture of beads made with that color. And the photos may or may not be accurate and representative.

So this is my new little side project: make spacer beads and catalog colors of every glass I order in 96 coe for reference. Perhaps other lampworkers will find these little color references helpful as well. Happy torching!

While the world was thrown into a live action dystopian movie, yours truly needed even more disruption and chaos. If I didn't know better, I would almost think I enjoyed insanity as I tend to rattle my own world on a seemingly regular basis. Let's go crazy and build a house and move in the middle of a pandemic while the world is on fire and supply chain issues abound. Sounds like fun. While we are at it, let's also make sure the kids are ripped from the school district they've known since kindy and introduce them to a whole new lot of kids ... during hybrid learning and mask mandates making it even harder to meet people. And since we are on a roll, let's tear down the one thing that keeps mama sane and pack the studio up first to get it out of the way. MAKES TOTAL SENSE . Fast forward two years and here we are. We survived. The kids survived. The GLASS survived. And we are all happy and thriving and better than we were before. The house is amazing. Our new school d

Wrist Candy

I don't know why I am suddenly obsessed with making bracelets. I don't even really wear bracelets much because I am on a keyboard most of the day and they tend to get in my way. Nevertheless, I find them absolutely adorable, fun to make, and the perfect amount of creative challenge. You can pack a lot of design elements into 8 inches 😳  I am also in spring cleaning mode and all those cute little tackle boxes with all their perfect little compartments are full to the brim and I really need to start making jewelry again to create space - for all the new components I keep buying. or making.  Because using craft supplies and buying craft supplies are two very different hobbies - in case you didn't know 😉 If you are in the mood to adorn yourself with new wrist candy, check out my Etsy shop.
