Paisley Tapestry Inspired With An Unique Shape!

Glass Diversions describes their Persian Paisley frit as a fantastic blending of opaque colors with a few light transparent tones that when mixed together they create a complex blend. It contains a misting of sparkling gold and a reactive Iris Orange (Raku).


I have used this blend many years ago and realized that I needed to replenish my glass frit stash on my recent order.


On a base of CiM - Creation Is Messy's Linen, an opaque neutral beige, this frit was sprinkled and each bead shaped into a Zulu shape.


The combination of these glasses created a classic set of beads that remind me of vintage tapestry!


Although CiM Linen is showing as sold out, I invite you to check out CiM's other neutral glasses to pair with this lovely glass frit!

The Allure of Peach Pink Glass Beads: A Touch of Romance

In the world of glass bead-making, the fusion of color and transparency creates more than just jewelry components; it crafts a narrative. 
This Peach Pink romance-inspired set of glass beads is a testament to this artistry. 


Imagine the delicate dance of Val Cox Pink Lipstick glass frit over a base of Italian Effetre peach rose transparent glass


Each bead is a canvas where bursts of pinks unfold in patterns, evoking a muted romantic aura that's both timeless and contemporary.


The process of creating these beads is as fascinating as the beads themselves. 
The Val Cox Pink Lipstick glass frit blend is known for its warm pink hues that only reveal their true peach-pink splendor after heating. 
This transformative quality ensures that each bead is unique, carrying within it the secrets of its creation.

Reach out to Jean or Jennifer at Nortel to add some of these glasses

Wave, Currents and Twists in an Ocean Inspired Bead Set

I created this set of glass beads with Glass Diversions Indian Ocean glass frit twisted over a base of Italian Effetre white glass.


Bursts of blues and greens transparent and opaque glasses create an ocean inspired bead set. 


This is such a simple design that focusses on the true beauty of this glass frit blend from Glass Diversions. 


It has become a favourite of mine!
