The discoveries we make!

I am so often excited by the discoveries you make when working in glass.
The picture shown is of one of my favourite beads...they are a vintage looking, romantic and soft glass bead that are a green colour while at the same time a soft pink.
This amazing technique was a chance discovery when playing at the torch one day and has become one of my most popular bead finishes.
It is made from a base bead of copper green, overlaid with transparent pink enamel powder and decorated with dark ivory and copper green to get the beautiful organic patterns.
It just goes to show that playing at the torch is one way to keep your work innovative and fresh meaning my customers always get something exciting to look at.

Till next time.

Cheers,
Skye
