Foray Into Lampworking, Beading, and Glass Fusing

More unwitting influencers:

3. My sister Kathy who went with me to Corning, NY. There we took an hour class in making our own lampwork glass pendant using flame and glass rods. I loved doing it!

4. My parents who showed by example that even if the idea is crazy, go ahead and give it a shot. So I did some research about lampworking. It looked easy in videos on the internet, and of course, nothing ever goes wrong. So how hard can lampworking be, right?
