Glass Lampwork Bead of the Day for Monday, March 28, 2011

Happy Monday!  It's a beautiful day outside here in California, and I am seeing blooming flowers and budding fruit trees.  The only problem is that flowers are so short-lived, whereas the lovely bead I found this morning will last throughout the seasons...

Hollow Iris Focal Glass Bead by Holly's Folly Glass

This is the Hollow Iris Focal Glass Bead by Holly Dare of Holly's Folly Glass.  It's got purple petals made from a specially hand-pulled cane by Holly, and the irises are built carefully on a grey hollow bead.  It sounds like a large focal bead at 32.8mm x 44.5mm (1.3″ x 1.75").  See what else Holly's featuring in her shops, Holly's Folly Glass on ArtFire, and on Etsy.  Holly also participates in the Bead of the Day Promotion, offering 10% off if you snap this up today :)

See what else the Fire Divas Guild is up to by visiting the ArtFire weekly chat thread here, or the Etsy Team thread here.  AND: If you haven't heard yet, the Fire Divas are running a Customer Appreciation Sale through April 2nd, see the details here.  Have a great week!
