Natural Nail Polish...Didn't Know

We're getting more and more careful with what we're eating, putting on our bodies and surrounding ourselves with...but I hadn't thought of nail polish, until I saw it on a natural products website.  From what I can tell, I think you can remove it with rubbing alcohol.

I'm not sure if I am ready to transition.  My hands need something sturdy to stay on really well and I don't know if this does.  But if I had little girls wanting to play dress up, I sure would be using a product like this.  You can find it on this awesome website - www.AbesMarket.com.

Safety Reminders

As a glass artist and teacher working in a home studio, it's important to remember to keep yourself safe while working.

I found photos on the internet of eye protection, a fire extinguisher and an interesting ventilation system.

As much as I appreciate innovation and creativity, I'm not suggesting these as possible options, only sources of amusement.

So do me a favor, polish up those didymiums, double check that your fire extinguisher is charged, turn on your vent system and stay safe.

See you tomorrow for a little fun and glass chat

My Home Town In The News


Perhaps you've seen the news reports about the flooding in Georgia. Well my friends, living in the middle of it, I have to say, was pretty amazing.

I love water and always thought I wanted to live on a lake. However, I never really planned for that lake to be in the middle of my street.

This is one house down from mine, and we escaped a lot of the harm that other areas experienced. We were lucky. My thanks to Anita for sending out this photo.

I only had one not-so-good experience. I went outside in the driving rain to take a photo of the water rushing downhill from my backyard. It was awesome and they were great shots until I dropped my camera into the stream of water. The camera opened up and the camera card flew out and got quickly swept away. I'm not sure whether the camera will work or not. I was so lucky with that minor mishap compared to others.

So if you don't mind, take a sec., count your blessings and today find at least one little thing to do for others. I know that's topping my list. Somehow, I still believe that karma can be a good thing.

See you tomorrow for some uber cool, very modern accessories. http://www.StudioMarcy.blogspot.com
