A Long Time Hence
I know it’s been a long time since I’ve posted on here, but I just have to share this!
The British Museum has a new exhibition opening soon on Ice Age sculptures! Wow!

2012 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 1,900 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 3 years to get that many views.
The Tubing Book: Now in Paperback
It’s here! The book on How To Bend Tubing is now available in paperback.
You can get it from CreateSpace right now, or wait a week or so until it’s available on Amazon. The Kindle edition is already online.

Now, back to the seaglass…
Update: The Tubing Book
I’ve had the ebook version of “How To Bend Tubing” out for about a year now (really?) and thought it was about time I produced a print version. This is in hand, and will be announced shortly, but as I haven’t blogged for a while I thought I’d mention it.
The ebook will be going up on Smashwords soon too, so those of you with Nooks and Kobos and Apple devices will be able to download it without selling your soul to Amazon. But don’t let me stop you if that’s your thang…

Seaglass: New Project Underway
I’ve just started work on a new jewellery project that I’m really excited about. It will use up some of my seaglass, especially the big chunky aqua pieces, and I’ll blog it as it develops. At each stage I’ll put up pictures of the work in progress and maybe a little step-by-step instruction
I don’t expect to finish it until nearer to Christmas but I hope to have updates at least every month. Each post will have “Seaglass” as the first word in the title so you’ll know what it’s about.
In the meantime, here’s a peek at some of the raw materials:

Lovely, ain’t they?
