Hey, Happy Crafters! I am really excited to share this week's shop update with yall, and Randy and I picked 5 of our favorite cabs to feature to you! This was difficult to do, because each one is so unique and stands out on its own <3 Each of the cabs discussed below, and many like them, are available for sale in our shop Meet our first "set" of cabs for sale! They are certainly sisters more than twins, but we felt like they accentuated each other well. Perfect for a pair of earrings, or a mini pendant and ring set! What you would make with these small cabs? These are cab 1G This tear drop is our favorite from our most recent experiments with blending frits to get a swirling, almost resin-like gradient. I think the fiery tones pair perfectly with the vibrant flash of the dichro inclusions <3 This is cab 4G This piece is one of Randy's most favorite pieces we have ever made! I personally love the versatility of a partially transparent cab, as whoever takes it home can paint the back to be whatever color they like or they can leave it clear to pick up on the colors of their clothing or skin when worn. The large, hand cut pieces of dichroic glass fused in this piece give a lively flash with every movement! This is cab 25G This is possibly my favorite Galaxy cab I have ever made! The dispersion of the bubbles, complimented by the nebula flashes of dichroic glass against an inky background give this cab so much character and depth. This is cab 27G This cabochon is the result of experimenting with a new-to-us color of pale amber transparent frit that I think looks like a warm citrine, with opal-like flashes of dichroic glass glimmering from within! This is cab 31G Get your work featured in our blog! Have you used our cabochons or lampwork beads in your own creations? Have you followed along or were inspired by one of our tutorials? Send a picture of the piece you'd like featured with a short artisan bio and shop or gallery link to backtoearthcreations@yahoo.com and keep an eye out in future blog posts!

I love your pieces to pieces. But if I had to pick a favorite it would be 4G, love the orange and yellow. Also 7G too. Hell I love them all but those would be my top.

Beautiful offerings. Each has its own unique features and mix of colors. Looking at each one I think, "This one!". Then I see the next, and next, and so on. What a it would make to be able to get each one.

OM gosh, they're all beautiful, but if I had to pick a favorite, it has to be the green and/or greenish-blue cabs. Looking forward to some that the teardrop shape w/hole. Good job!
