Silver Storm Beads - Teals and Purples!

For this set of silver storm beads, I used CiM - Creation Is Messy Fjord Milky, a bluish teal milky opal as the base glass. 

After adding a layers of ivory, CiM rare Black Currant and Double Helix KA 357 silver infused glasses, each bead was encased in clear glass domes.

Dots of Double Helix Elpis were carefully added and reduced it to a metallic shine. 

The multi-colour portals shine with hues of rich purples and blues.

Two sets are available in my Etsy Shop!

CiM - Creation Is Messy 2023 New Color - Charisma Ltd Run

CiM - Creation is Messy's new purple for 2023 is called Charisma Ltd Run. It is a transparent lavender purple similar to a previous CiM purple named Jacaranda Ltd Run.

I created a focal bead with a core of Charisma with a sprinkling of Lumiere Luster's Shangri-la luster flakes. Click here for more information about this product.

 

The beads was then encased in Double Helix Zephyr clear and shaped into a slim flat nugget bead. The 2 spacers are pure Charisma for comparison.

 

 
The next set of beads using Charisma has round and cube shapes with a focal cube with layers of rare CiM Black Currant Ltd Run, Double Helix silver infused KA-357, Triton and Zephyr.  

 

 

There are a number of encased "poked" bubbles as the layers were added.

 

Although Jacaranda is listed as sold out on the CiM - Creation Is Messy website, I have confirmed that it is available from Nortel (at the time of this post).

 

Click here to see the post from 2021 when I tested Jacaranda for the first time. Below is the bead set.

 

  

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.

Why have I never tried Dichroic glass strips before?

On my visit to Nortel back in October, I was blessed with a couple of strips of dichroic glass to experiment with.

These strips of sparkly goodness are the creation of Lori Riley Designs. 

On her site she describes these as "premium dichroic strips are fused and ready for flame. These perfused dichroic strips help prevent scumming and are much easier to use."
They are easy to apply and I have a fun time creating the focal beads in this post, trying out a different one on each bead.

Nortel Glass in Toronto has a wonderful selection of these little treasures, so definitely contact Jean or Jennifer to purchase some for your next bead making session!

All of the beads were created with CiM - Creation Is Messy's Midnight Ltd Run, a dense transparent that color shifts between purple in daylight and navy blue in fluorescent light.
For each of my beads, I feel that the base glass appears more as a black. 
Midnight is a great base for silver glass as well, so I added a few streams of it in each bead as well as I really couldn't resist!

First up.
A base of CiM Midnight with melted Violet dichroic strip and streams of Double Helix Melia 2015. The bead was encased with Effetre Super Clear and hand shaped into the round barrel bead.
The ends of this 35.6mm long bead were decorated with Melia and reduced to a shiny metallic finish.



This 29mm long round barrel focal bead combined Riley's Dichroic strip simply named G/Magenta Crinkle and reams of rare Double Helix KA 357 on the base of CiM Midnight.
The bead was fully enacsed in Effetre Super Clear.

Riley's Dichroic strip named RBA GN Magenta Blue and Double Helix Psyche glass were streams on CiM Midnight. This handformed barrel focal measures 36mm after fully encased in Effetre Super Clear.

Last but certainly not least...

CiM Midnight excelled as the base for Riley Dichroic Aurora C/DK Red and Double Helix Elpis silver glass. This round barrel focal is 34mm long after being encased in Effetre Super Clear and handformed.

Aren't they so pretty and so different?

I recommend trying something new is a great way to finish out 2022 and expand your beadmaking horizons for 2023.

Next post will explore a few more glittery beads that I recently created.

Til next time,
Darlene

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.

Finally back at the torch! Testing CiM Glass too!

Gosh!... It seems like forever since my last blog post!
Life took an interruption just after Christmas 2012 that resulted in lots of time away from the torch and quality time with my family.
Although the break was somewhat "forced", it was a great time to spend with my 80+ year old dad as he got a brand new knee! In less than 4 weeks after his surgery, he was walking without a cane and moving along faster than me!
Moving in with him for 5 weeks, including my remote office for my daytime career, was a great adventure. Unfortunately EVERY weekend in February, we had major snowstorms resulting in NO time in the studio!

I am now back home and settled back in and my first session at the torch was to test new CiM Limited Run glasses. The results are below.
Let me know what you think...

Smiles,
D.
