Hi Nick
Thank you for the great idea I did think of this but would I need a transformer as we are on a lower voltage than in America?  I really don't know how the electrical stuff works :-)

Hi. I don't know where to buy them, but, as a last resort, you could get an American one and an adapter. You can get them from Boots, and probably online. It fits our plugs, with holes for the US plug in it.

Hellooo I hope you are all safe and well.  I could really do with a little help or advice please 🙂
My neighbour has a new little baby and I have made a coaster size fused glass piece to attach on a night nightlight.  Problem is now I have made the piece I do not have the nightlight or attachments.  I have searched the internet and all I find are American nightlights I think they may have bulbs behind I'm not sure and it is possible to buy kits from Delphi Glass in America but the prongs for the plug socket is not right for the UK.
Please could anyone advise me as to where I can buy the correct attachments and fittings/nightlights etc to make this? Or does anyone have a tutorial they would be willing to share please?
Thank you so very much

Today we are going to create a fun and easy-to-make 5-bead set. We'll do so using the basic skill sets we already have in our bead-making arsenal. Plus we'll look at flattening beads, adding dots in a grid pattern, squaring bead edges, utilizing different parts of the flame and I have some tips on how to successfully recreate bead styles.
