Best of the Week ending 9/21/2008

It’s a ver­i­ta­ble plethora of bloggy good­ness out there this week!!!

• At the new Glass Arts blog on CraftGossip.com, Lori Green­berg finds two bead artists inspired by Amer­i­can Gothic.
• Seraphim Flame­works tests out the lat­est Dou­ble Helix odd lots and test batches.
• Karolen’s still learn­ing about Pan­dora as she tries restrik­ing some unstruck beads in the kiln.
• Karolen didn’t spend ALL her time at the torch this week, though — she found a use­ful new tool for Etsy sell­ers on the Web.
• Can you make a liv­ing as a lam­p­worker? Deanna Chase does it.
• That Marcy Lam­ber­son is a busy, busy per­son! First she finds the per­fect tool to help with the glassy details on your beads.
• Then she coaches Fiona in mak­ing a black­bird and a pen­guin at the torch.
• For the week’s Major Eye Candy, Han­nah Ros­ner knocks our col­lec­tive socks off with her lat­est neck­laces using not just lam­p­work, but a plethora of seed beads and crys­tals as well.
