Another try, palladium beads




and a goddess bead

[sublimekate]

Just thought I'd show these, I've been having a great time with Jo's shards and thought I'd big them up 

These we're all made incorporating the silvered ivory shards.

[Lush!]

Fabulous!  Especially the top two - are they drops? Does the hole not go right through? 

Hope you don't mind me adding my photos here then - and I've got some more of Jo's shards on order 

I think these were mainly Copper Green shards over Sky Blue and Dirty Martini (think I've shown them before)



I'm not sure what glass Jolene used for these shards, she called them "experimental"! I've simply used them over Effetre transparent teal with a touch of Triton.

Where is everyone? No new beads.

Here are a few from me.

[Pam]

Ilona great silvery tabs.
And a set from me.

[Shirley]

What a beautiful bright set of beads, josephine

Ilona, I love the silvering on your lentils.

Wow, Pam, those are great.

Very pretty sets, Marie, I love the pinky chocolatey ones at the bottom

Here are some I put in one of the Reichenbach threads


And a floral. I might get one I'm really happy with one day. This one is nearly there

Stunning.

[Maria Louisa]

I really love those Reichenbach beads.

I've used my marble press (the 22mm size) to make these:

Hi!
I was absent for quite some time, so I didn't show my snowflake yet...

[LesleyMac]

Crikey you lot get up early, I have a day off but am waiting for my propane to be delivered.

Absolutely gorgeous beads on here, Josephine's first set are lovely and fresh looking and I love those stunners of Maria Louisa's, wow, loved the Reichenbach beads and Pams set.  Too many to mention already, lovely.


This is my first poor effort at a seahorse bead using the Kim Affleck tutorial in the flow magazine.

It has inspired me to try harder and get it right, but this is effort number one.
Its incredibly hard to copy someone else's beads.





and a couple more I have made

Back of same bead

Seahorse attempt number 2, this is slightly better but still not what I want. PPP

[Josephine]

There are some fantastic beads on this thread. Lesley, Maria Louise, Marie, Kaz, Sarah, Diane, Kathy just to mention a few that really caught my eye.

I eventually got round to trying my hand at a fibula. I'm quite pleased with it but I think I will use slightly thicker wire on the next.

[Ilona]

There are some lovely beads on this S&T so far this week.

I too have been playing with Jolenes shards

My (almost) first froggie...



A simple lentil set...

[Steampunkglass]

So many amazing beads again here this week! Love all this in depth work and detail! I'm been stuck with work so haven't done much, but finally got to play with boro colour-- and I like it!!! Not a great pic, just a quick snap, love doing these drops at the moment;
