Half Way Thru 2012

All Sets within this post are NOW SOLD

Drachenstein
Dragonscales Series #3

" A Norse dragon that was slain by Hurnen Sifrit for its hoard of gold."

Can you imagine a dragon? If one existed, I imagine it to look like these beads!

Materials: CiM - Creation is Messy Glass, Fine Silver foil and Val Cox Frit

On a base of CiM's Hippo Gray, 99% fine silver foil was added and layered with Val Cox Purple Rose frit. The combination was then melted into the surface and the beads were tumble etched for a smooth tactile feel.  Each micro-drop of silver has taken on a golden glow.


Metallic Maraschino Rounds

Materials: CiM - Creation is Messy and Double Helix Glasses

This regal set of 10 beads was created with a base of CiM's "dense transparent bright carnival red" glass known as Maraschino which Double Helix Aurae shards were carefully placed. Each bead was then reduced to bring out the glorious metallic bling in hues of blue, gold, copper and rose!



Pale Aqua Rio Nights Frit Rounds

Materials: Effetre Glasses and Val Cox frit

On a canvas of Effetre Pale Aquamarine transparent glass, Val Cox Rio Nights frit blend was sprinkled to create this 22 bead set. This frit includes Multicolor Dark frit that strikes to create the unique patterns on these beads. All beads in this set have been etched to a tactile smooth feel. Eight Pale Aqua spacers are included in this set.



 Blue Love Sonnet

Materials: Effetre Glasses and Pendragonfyre frit

On a canvas of Effetre Pale Blue transparent over a white opaque core, these 9 beads were sprinkled with a custom Pendragonfyre frit blend to create this Love Sonnet inspired set of beads that have been etched to a tactile smooth feel. This frit is a custom handmix that includes Raku and rare Purple Rose to create these patterns that resemble garden flowering vines and lattice. Six Pale Blue spacers are included in this set.



Exotic Frit Rounds

Materials: CiM - Creation is Messy Glass, Fine Silver foil and Glass Diversions Frit

On a base of CiM's Stoneground, 99% fine silver foil was added and layered with Glass Diversion's Exotic frit. The combination was then melted into the surface.
The result is a golden brown silvered pattern on each bead. So rich and vibrant for summer!



Pink and Marble SIS Wave Nuggets

Materials: CiM - Creation is Messy, Effetre Glasses and Silvered Ivory

Effetre Rose Quartz Transparent and CiM's Limited Run Marble create these wave twist beads. The twist is created with handmade silvered ivory stringer placed where each glass meets and twisted at centre point on each side of the bead. These beads have been etched to give them a tactile feel and a beach glass look!
