Dots, Dots and New Colors!

Patterns - dots and dots layering with CiM - Creation is Messy colors.

Below the first 3 beads on the left are a combination of CiM's Butternut Ltd Run, Fremen, rare Hollandaise Ltd Run, Grape Ape and Hades black.

The 5 beads on the right are simple with a combination of CiM's Alley Cat Ltd Run and Grape Ape are both at times streaky but paired together create an exotic mix of rich hues.

Highlights of Double Helix's Aurae silver infused glass create bling and really play to Alley Cat's beauty!

 The final set for today is another CiM Limited Run glass named Nectar. It is intended to be a peach which I found to have a golden tone when worked. 99% fine silver wire wraps may cause a slight reaction, but nothing that is terribly noticable.

It melts smoothly and is a great base for Glass Diversions Himalayan Rose frit in the centre focal bead.

CiM Color Testing 2014 - Weimaraner Ltd Run

There are multiple types of gray opaques out in the glass world ranging in undertones of green, brown and blue. Weimaraner Ltd Run is CiM's offering for an opaque blu-ish gray.

It is a streaky gray and provides some interesting reactions in these dotted beads below.

 Mixed with Effetre White, CiM's Desert Pink and rare CiM Razzleberry, the result is both classic and retro! These beads remind me of 1950's soft pinks and poodle skirts!
