Bad Blogger….
Well, I don’t mean I write bad blog posts, I mean I don’t write them at all!The International Festival of Glass was fabulous, but I haven’t managed to blog about it yet – sadly, my photos didn’t come out as well as I’d hoped, so I don’t have a huge amount to show you – but I will, I promise! Fab news from there, if I didn’t tweet or Facebook it loud enough is that my medallion sold!And then I also said I would talk about the Olympic Legacy Project, and give a more detailed account and some photographs – I need to do that soon, seeing as we officially open it next week!However, for a few personal reasons, this last week or ten days or so have been a bit hectic and stressful, so blogging went on the back burner for even longer. Hopefully I will start to catch up with myself soon – although if all the exicting things that are potentially coming my way actually come to fruition, I am going to be one busy bee! Oh yeah, and we’re planning the Christmas Open Studios already (yes, only 12 weeks to Christmas and I haven’t started making Christmas stock yet…. best get a wiggle on, Dawn!).Well, I was going to do a treasury round up, but for some reason the website that does the widgets has decided not to play nicely, and I am not getting rid of this post now! So, I will do that as soon as it works again – or else I will add some photographs of something, which ever comes sooner!I know, for now, here’s a quick snap of some new ideas I have been playing with, fun motto coasters…Motto Coasters -
Going International!
My work is going to be featured in my first international exhibition soon! Okay, so it’s actually in the based in the UK, but features glass makers from around the world, and I m thrilled to think that my glass is going to be exhibited alongside some internationally aclaimed artists.As part of the International Festival of Glass, the Contemporary Glass Society are holding a Medallions Exhibition at the Ruskin Glass Centre – here’s my entry:Glass Medallion I’ve been looking forward to the IFG since they confirmed it was on, which seems like a long time ago – I’ve been the last two times (it’s on every two years) and for anybody with a love of anything glassy, I can’t recommend it highly enough (well, its good even if you’re not a glass addict!) – I usually blog about it, so if you want to see the sort of work you can see, take a look at these earlier blog posts:“Off to the IFG” (Images of 2008)
“What We Saw at the IFG” (August 2010)
Can’t wait to go to the Festival, and so excited to be part of it!
