koru #226

Shattered Pyrex storage bowl -- my second broken glassware in two weeks. This one actually bounced when it hit the first time then shattered on the second hit. At least there was no bleeding. I'm starting to think maybe tile floors aren't the best for me...

koru #214

This one comes from my mom: Chateau Cupertino entry window embellishment.

koru #212

Glass sculptures at TJ Maxx in San Mateo, CA (taken 7/22).

koru #88

More fantastic beads from Maggie Towne.

koru #85

Another packing find: gorgeous hand-blown glass beads by my friend Carli at juiceglass.

 

I just love the reflection of the pool in this one...

koru #74

Leaded glass candle sconces, Redwood City, CA.

koru #69

My sister makes jewelry. Recently her friend Maggie Towne gifted her a whole bowl of beautiful Maggie's Bead Towne hand-blown glass beads. When I visited my sister today they were sitting on her dining room table in a crystal candy dish like a glimmering find-the-koru game. How many can you find? (Scroll down for a clearer if less artistic picture.) Santa Clara, CA.

I count eight in this one.
