Glass Masking
Start with a base colour (black) and put on a set of contrast dots (white)
This is what it looks like on a bead
And melted in:
Add a further set of base colour (black) in between the white dots.
I’m illustrating with Grey so you know what I have added in this step
This is what it looks like on a bead
Repeat this with dots in between each of the white dots

You should have something that looks like this (but on a round bead)
And on an actual bead melted in:
Add a white dot (using a stringer) on top of each of the black dots
This is what it looks like on a bead
And melted in:
Add a black dot (using a stringer) on top of each of the white dots
Add a black dot (using a stringer) on top of each of the original larger white dots
Add a white dot (using a stringer) on top of each of the central black dots
Add a small black dot (using a stringer) between each of the original large white dots
This is what it looks like on a bead
Stop, when you feel you have done enough
Anyway, hopefully this shows the principle. Now you just have to accomplish this on a round bead.
