About MeI am Barbara Matteson. My husband taught me how to be a silversmith. Thanks, Robert. We have been in supporting ourselves through our jewelry business, Cosmic Resources, for
thirty years! I set up my lampwork studio in 1998 after taking a couple of glass beadmaking workshops. After months of practice, practice, practice I began selling jewelry made from my beads. I continue to sell my jewelry alongside my Silver Rain charm beads at Seattle's famous Pike Place Market. If you like gold and glass and nudes check out my award winning figurative glasswork at http://matteson.wix.com/gold-glass. |
ThanksThanks also go out to Andrea Guarino-Slemmons for teaching me the drizzled silver lampworking technique way back in the 90's! And thanks go to all the lampworkers, worldwide, who share their passion for making beads with the public.
