Silver Glass Reactions - Magic Of The Goddess Bead - Part 3

As part three of my posts on Goddess beads, I still have more sets of Goddess beads to share with you today.
This set started on a base of CiM - Creation Is Messy’s Boysenberry, a dense and saturated purple moonstone.
 

 
Layers of CiM Cafe Au Lait, Double Helix Melia 2, Psyche Light were placed and captured under clear portals of Double Helix Zephyr. 
 

To complete each bead, dots of silver infused Aurae Light was added and reduced to a metallic shine. 
 

The spacers are pure Boysenberry.
 
 
This set started on a base of sold out CiM - Creation Is Messy’s Cerulean, a transparent blue aqua.
 
 
Layers of Effetre Light Ivory, Double Helix 2016 Garage Sale glass coded as TC 663 and test glass Sk.j.
 

The silver glass was stormed and reduced and captured under clear portals of Double Helix Zephyr.
 
 
To complete each bead, dots of silver infused Aurae Light was added and reduced to a metallic shine.
 
The spacers are pure Cerulean.

I purchase my CiM glass from Nortel in Toronto.
Boysenberry shows as in stock currently.
Reach out to them for your glassy needs.

CiM - Creation Is Messy 2023 New Color - Kiwi Misty Ltd Run

Today, I am introducing you to a new 2023 green from CiM - Creation Is Messy named Kiwi. Kiwi is a lime green opal the is offered in both a misty and milky version.
The beads within this post are created with the misty sister.

First up, I used Kiwi Misty as the base on which a layer of Jetage Studio's Lumiere Luster named Strawberry Rhubarb was added and then encased with Double Helix Zephyr. 
 

 
The spacers are pure Kiwi Misty to show the base color directly.
 
 
This set of goddess series beads was created on a base of CiM's Kiwi Misty Ltd Run glass. 
 
 
Each goddess bead was then layered with dots of CiM's Cafe Au Lait, Double Helix's Blue Catalyst glass named ES405, a 2016 Garage Sale rod coded CL.a. 
 
 
The combination of the glasses create the multi-hued portals captured under each clear glass dot of Zephyr.  
 
 
Double Helix OX-376 completes the metallic highlight droplets on each bead.

All the new CiM colors for 2023 are available through Nortel in Toronto through their online shopping cart. I suggest ordering some very soon before it is gone.

CiM - Creation Is Messy 2022 Color - Douglas Aster Ltd Run

CiM’s new Douglas Aster Ltd Run is pretty pastel purple. It melts beautifully and smoothly with no issues.

As a base for my Goddess style beads, I wanted to see if the base purple hue would fume when paired with Double Helix silver glass. As I expected it did.


Layered dots of CiM’s new Cafe Au Lait Ltd Run which has some silver content and a Double Helix test silver glass named KA357. 


Clear portal dots of Double Helix Zephyr were added to capture the stormed reaction of the silver glass. 

Each portal turned into reduced storms of purples and pinks as a result of the reaction between the two silver laden glasses. The base glass of Douglas Aster fumed to a golden ivory losing the purple pastel.


Dots of DH Hyperion complete each bead.

CiM - Creation Is Messy 2022 Color - Atoll Misty Ltd Run

Creation Is Messy’s 2022 Atoll Misty Ltd Run is a green misty opal leaning to the blue side of the spectrum. It is a very pretty color that speaks to spring at the seaside.

I had previously tested CiM’s Cafe Au Lait Ltd Run for its friendliness to other silver glasses, so it was fitting to try it again in another combination for my Goddess beads to test how Atoll Misty would behave with layered portals.


Starting on a base of this glass, I layered dots of CiM Cafe Au Lait, CiM’s extremely dark purple called Black Currant Ltd Run and Trautman's silver glass named Golden Emerald experimental.


Clear portal dots of Double Helix Zephyr were added to capture the stormed reaction of the silver glass producing streams of purples, ambers and greens.

CiM's green glass stayed true to its original tone and melted beautifully and stayed stiff enough to maintain the layering without drifting or shifting.

Dots of Double Helix Aurae complete each bead.
