Why, Hollow There

These beads are a bit of a pain to make but, they are really cool since the inside is hollow. You make them by making two disk beads side by side but with a gap in between. Then as you build the disks up they will start to cup into each other. When they get on a tiny gap between the two tops of the disks you can seal them off together as one big hollow bead. As you round the bead out in the flame the air that's caught inside will expand and keep the bead from deflating so make sure you don't have any holes in your bead.

P.S. which is your favorite? I really like the one with the hearts on it ♥

I ♥ U

These are really fun to make and I love the ♥ pattern on them. All I did was make dots all the way around melt them in then drag the bottom of the dot down on all of them. Then go back around and pull the top part of the dot down also and doing that gives you cute little ♥s.

New Lampwork Beadies

Some of these you've already seen in my last post but they were in my last group of beads so I thought I'd post them here too.

Bead Release is Ugly

None of these beads are really pretty enough for close ups but they look pretty cute all together :)

Lampwork Update!!!!!!

  After almost a year I'm at it again. I've got my kiln up and running and I've got my torch all set up. I've been making twisties (which is insanely difficult lol). I hope you like all the pictures I got a bit carried away there. More beads in the kiln now so hopefully I'll have more pictures soon.
