Here is a little of what Libby has to say about these.

These are one of my favorite styles of beads.They are about 5/8 to about 6/8 inch in size. I love these beads. They are killer and so beautiful. Great for that eclectic look, very earthy. They are all handmade by me and kiln annealed. These are made on a 1/16 mandrel and would great added to the Classic Copper Pods.

MaryAnn

    I've often gone to Libby's Etsy's shop and looked at the lamp work podlets, I've even gone so far as to ask a friend who makes lamp work, how to make them. Her Clio Pod is also amazing. Jut joined Libby's blog.. Look forward to reading more.

    I think the trading is a good thing, I too like Kristi Bowman and I am sure many of you already know her great designs.
    In Aug, Libby went to Washington and enjoyed seeing Dale Chihuly ceiling. I was on vacation and saw one in the Bellagio hotel.. truly beautiful.
