Introduction
My name is Judith Johnston, I created this site as an online journal of my life and lampwork because after all, it's all about the beads! So here's a little about who I am, and what I love...
I'm a beadmaker, melting glass to make lampwork beads. I live in Brighton on the south coast of England, it's a bright cosmopolitan city, full of life, love, laughter and light, everyone I know who lives here absolutely loves it including me.
I love coffee, I love knitting - especially socks from the toe up, I love my computer, I love the art of Hiroshige and Hokusai, William Morris and Monet, I love cherries, I love cake, I love the fragrance of sweet peas, freesias, lily of the valley, lavender and roses...
I love so many things but nothing compares to how much I love my family!
Welcome to my website, come right in and make yourself at home.
What is this life
What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.A poor life this is if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
