Silver Glass with Silvered Ivory!

These beads are made of a base of CiM - Creation Is Messy green glass called Shrubbery.  


A layer of Double Helix Triton silver infused glass and decorated with dots of silvered ivory. 


The silver glass bloomed to beautiful blues shine. 
Each focal bead was encased in a layer of clear glass to further magnify the bead’s core. 


The green spacers are included in this set.




Effetre and Double Helix glasses are readily available from Nortel Glass in Toronto. Reach out to Jean or Jennifer at Nortel to add some glass to your collection.

New Love Sonnet Sets on Etsy

New post I enjoy creating layered beads. This style I have called Love Sonnet as they create a romantic look and feel with the multi-layers of glass and colored frit.
I tumble etch each set for a tactile matte finish.

Set #1 was created with a core of Vetrofond Dark Sky Blue opaque layered with Effetre clear glass on which Val Cox Songbird frit was sprinkled and melted to a smooth finish.
The spacers are Vetrofond Dark Sky Blue.



Set #2 was created with a core of CiM - Creation Is Messy Rapunzel, a light lavender pink layered with Effetre clear glass on which Glass Diversions Himalayan Rose frit was sprinkled and melted to a smooth finish.
The spacers are CiM Rapunzel.



This last set also used a core of Vetrofond glass. In this case it is a core of 
Vetrofond Violet opaque layered with Effetre clear glass on which Glass Diversions Vineyard Vines was sprinkled and melted to a smooth finish.
The spacers are Vetrofond Violet.
