More Beads
I spent a great day at the torch yesterday. Some of my beads are stuck on the mandrels (advice: never ever buy cheap mandrels thinking you're getting a "deal"--losing beads because they are permanently stuck isn't a deal!). One of them is my favorite...but I can't worry about those. I'll have Jermaine try to get them off when he gets home from football.
I did break a bead. And it was gorgeous! I'm trying to get the swirly look of transparent over opaque and I don't think I heated up the mandrel enough. I think I can recrete it.
These latest beads (from the last few sessions) are a new direction for me and I'm liking it a lot! What do you think?
