Soldered Silver Filigree Jewelry (July 6, 2008)This folder of pictures and videos is dedicated to my work and experiences with soldered filigree jewelry. If you are interested in this type of work, the best place to learn is a fantastic book by Jeanne Rhodes-Moen, titled "Silver Threads". It's available at Amazon.com and has taught me everything I know about this type of work.

Lamp Work Beads & Fused Glass (September 5, 2005 update #3)I have been lampworking for about six years now! I work with a dual gas torch (oxygen and propane). All of my work is kiln annealed for long enduring quality. The most recent work is first and chronicled in reverse order showing progress from day one, in the pictures at the end. If you want to see how I have progressed, start at the bottom and work your way to the top! This keeps the several people who are watching my progress from getting bored with scrolling to the bottom every time they drop in to see what is new! For questions or comments you can email me directly at mhair@pdq.net! Thank you all for your wonderful support and encouragement! Hugs to All, Mona
