Beads On Earth, Good Will To All!
I took a lampwork bead-making class on Saturday, and loved it! I had taken the shorter two-hour course with Her Majesty, back when she was merely a Princess :^}, learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed it. But this one was all day, and had only three students. It was great!
I have a lot to learn, and I now have everything I need to learn it!
From Saturday:
This is most of the beads I made. I left out a failed sculptured vessel and a poor attempt at poking a flower.
This is rolled in frit (ground glass or glaze) then encased in clear glass. You can see that this one is stuck on the mandrel, so will be a plant stick!
One of the first beads that I made, amber with cobalt stringer. Also stuck on the mandrel...
