When heat combines with raw material such as silica glass beauty appears.
Sometimes in life we need the heat to mold us into what we become.
A beautiful piece of art.
I am in love with that pumpkin with its twists and turns.
Are you experiencing heat, twists and turns in your life?
They will mold you into something beautiful.

Love the glass sculptures. I like your metaphor as well.
I absolutely love hand blown glass and I adore the words you have written today. Sometimes I do wish I would just become what I am to be and take a rest for awhile - this heat gets to me sometimes. I am your newest follower and I found you through the blog list on the sidebar of Butterfly and Bungalow.

I'm so glad you posted this -- the photos are fascinating and the final product is exquisite. Off for a short holiday tomorrow. I'll check in soon!
Ooh, I like that pumpkin, too - as well as your words about twists and turns. A great reminder!
Watching glass being worked... Magical.
Did you bring that amazing pumpkin home with you??????????????? :-)

Indeed yes, I feel I've really "been through the fire" over the past few months, but I do believe that as you say I am being molded into something whose beauty I probably can't even see just yet. I would have so enjoyed seeing the glass blowing. I totally get the chemistry and processes involved, but I've also long thought that in the making of glass there is more than a little something magical going on there as well!
Yes, heat - I feel like I'm going through hot flashes again and here I am really old - how strange! Twists along the travel routes have been amazing, and turns which are physically very painful at times with this darned PMR, are being addressed - darned doctors' offices are getting on my nerves and eating up valuable time I need for other, more fun things!
I'm waiting to be molded into beautiful but think it's a bit late now, LOL.
