Look at this darling girl ...  she's the next stop on our Virtual Book Tour ... the famous bead soup lady herself, Lori Anderson!  She's so much fun to be with ... all giggly and everything!  Just like she looks!

Lori Anderson burning the heck out of a bead! 

Lori has some surprises for you at her blog.  She has this great giveaway:  a complete kit for the Harem bracelet project.

  3. Lori looks relaxed and enjoying the moment, making a great advertisement for painting with fire! What a fun bracelet. I think I will hop over there!

  4. I'm a follower of Lori's, and that picture of her is a good one - smiling and playing (ahem, I mean painting) with fire.
    I would LOVE to win that kit!

  7. The torch set up shown in the photo of Laurie (who seems to be having fun despite a burned finger) doesn't look as intimidating as I thought it would be. Gotta get to work on this for the garage.

  9. Hi Barbara
    this virtual book tour was such a wonderful idea! Are you teaching the class that you taught the harem bracelet again next year at art and soul? If so I think I would take it!

  13. Oh! See now Barbara, it's the water bottle pictures that scare me!! Say something soothing because my awesome book came today:)

  14. I'm enjoying all the reviews. And I do follow your blog. Didn't realize I was supposed to leave a comment on each of the blogs to be entered for the giveaways, so am going back to some of them. It sounds like a great book, so I guess it will be next on my list, although lighting my torch for the first time kind of scares me. I'm not real great with fire. :)

Thank you for visiting me today! I love it when you leave comments. A lot of times, something you say gives me a different insight into what I said! Does that makes sense? I hope so ... All the best, Barbara
