| HI! I am Jodi Henry of Beadworx.com. I am a hot glass artist living in Arizona. I have two children that keep me pretty busy and fill my life with joy and adventure! I love spending time with my family and friends, camping, and anything outdoors, and I love to PLAY WITH HOT GLASS, (I have a family of pyromaniacs)!! I started beading about eight years ago, making jewelry and many other beaded items. In the fall of 2001, this love of beads eventually led me into finding the wonderful world of... I began my online business with my glass art shortly afterward and have been melting glass ever since! I am completely addicted to this art of hot glass. I hope to be playing in front of the torch for the rest of my life! You can check out my "Galleries", which include some of my poetry and some pictures of my family by using the links to the left. You can also check out some more fun facts about my business down below. And of course you can view all of my current available glass creations on the "Lampwork" link(above)! |

Rain water creates small lakes inside of each volcano and he uses my lampwork vessels to collect and store water from each volcano he visits! |
