Lampwork Bead Earrings

Emily Lupita Plum — Sat, 03 Dec 2011 22:05:48 +0000

I’ve been really enjoying my time back in my lampwork bead studio. I’ve been experimenting with different designs & styles and have a whole new batch of beads.

These are some of my favorites to come out of the flame recently. They remind me of candy canes.

I started wrapping the metal with different designs as well.

I have new longer styles…I’m loving these.

Beautiful Turkey

A few of my photographs of Istanbul and a poem by the Turkish poet, Nazım Hikmet.

Thinking of you is pretty, hopeful,

It is like listening to the most beautiful song

From the most beautiful voice on earth…

But hope is not enough for me any more,

I don’t want to listen to songs any more,

I want to sing.

-Nazım Hikmet
