Fire Divas Gossip Column

There's plenty to explore and learn on Fire Diva blogs this week, so let's get moving!

You'll want to see the sea creatures that have emerged from Patrice's torch over at Shepherd Creations.

And there are more sea creatures to see over at Lampwork Glass Beads, Playing with Fire.

Then head to Janel Dudley Beads for your chance to win one of her amazing Sprout beads - but hurry! It ends tonight!

If you've ever wondered what a weekend retreat at Frantz Art Glass would be like, stop by Ashlyn Design and Lori will give you a sneak peek. Lots and lots of glass . . . For more pictures, check out Lampwork Beads by Lara, another lucky Diva at the retreat.

Stop by Silver River Jewelry to check out the jewelry and glass bead items of the week!

Melanie is once again treating us to two color tests this week! Each color is also the name of an animal, so hop on over to Mind Melt to see the results.

More colors to test over at Lampwork Beads by Lara - some interesting reactions.

See how one lampworker made her glassy dreams come true at Tease Beads. Theresa tells all in her 3-part (more parts to come!) series entitled My Studio.

How is Farm Girl Cat spending June? Find out here!

Holly's been frustrated with her lack of computer, so she's taking an active role to make social media less of a nightmare. Find out what I mean over at Holly's Folly Bead & Jewelry Blog. Then scroll down to see some gorgeous silvered ivory. Ahhhhhh.

Babs Beads is jumping on the Big Hole Bead bandwagon - and her results are beautiful!

At Maybeads, I'm showing off some of my favorites from newer Divas - these beads are hot!

Lea and I must have been on the same wavelength, because there are more Diva glassy goodies over at lajewelrydesigns.

The Fire Divas are constantly evolving, and this week we sadly say goodbye to Jamie of Glasstastic Treasures. She's lightening her responsibility load, but we'll see her around! Good luck, Jamie!!!
