Thanks for stopping by to see my on-line gallery. All of the beads you see were handmade by me, Cindy Palmer. I have included many aspects of my work including fish, lizards, focal beads, and sets.
I'll continue to update this gallery with current work, and as time permits I'll add more images of past work as well. Enjoy your tour!!!

I have been thinking about knobs for nearly a year. I've made a few but haven't been really stoked by any of them until now!!!! These knobs make me happy and there are lots more knobs in my head waiting to come out!

I've been a busy little lampworket making more and more knobs!!! I've presented to a couple of design firms in the area and things are moving forward!!! Soon my knobs will be scattered across this vas land!!!

I think I made my first fish bead about a week after I learned to make beads. I didn't even have a kiln yet - yikes!! Since I began making these fellows, three years ago, they have gotten a lot bigger - typically a fish measures about 40mm long.

I really enjoy making bead sets, something about having all of those matching beads in one pile...yummy!
You'll notice some distinct changes in my color palette over the last six months. Since I have incorporated Riechenbach glass into the mix my palette of colors has doubled!! And there are so many more colors I haven't even gotten my hands on yet...

Animals are a big part of my life - I like things that don't talk too much... Frog beads are certainly a favorite of mine to make, lately I've been using a lot of Reichenbach glass to achieve rich earthy colors.

Cathy Lybarger was my first bead instructor three years ago, I also had the incredible opportunity to work along side her for about 4 months. Cathy too is a HUGE animal fan and in her studio she has two lizards pals, Lucy and Iggy.
Lucy and Iggy are the absolute inspiration for all of my lizard beads!! I love Lucy and Iggy!!!

Focal beads are a treat to make and to photograph. As much fun as I have making a set of beads I might enjoy making a really big focal bead even more!!! Something about sinking all of my energy into one piece and not breaking my flow by having to start another bead is very fulfilling.
And I guess if we’re being honest it's also a LOT easier to photograph a single bead as opposed to a set of beads...
