Title: "Sugar" Beads
Post by: Rachel B on June 01, 2008, 10:28:57 AM
I really love them and want to have a go at making some, is it just a case of clear frit not melted in or is it more complicated?  I can remember seeing a set that Anna Beads on Toast made ages ago called coconut ice, Anna, want to share your secret??  Thanks all.

On a Canadian forum, someone had posted similar with a pink base and gold frit... Blimey they looked gorgeous!!  It was the Two Glassy Ladies site  ;D
