An Interesting Phenomenon

Yesterday, I spent several hours at the torch.  I mixed colors, pulled twisties, played with color combos and made what seemed like a lot of beads.  When they came out of the kiln I showed my husband.

 "Honey ~ look at all the beads I made today!"

Then I took them off the mandrels.  32 spacers, 21 beads and 2 pendants (not counting the focal that's still stuck on the mandrel.

You know what happened?

It no longer looked like several hours worth of work.

It's a good thing I'm doing this for love instead of money!
