Its the same batch. We haven't had a new shipment of this colour for ages. Same bundle same batch?? Confused.com
I''l pull some rods out of front back and middle of batch and just see if they do anything different.
Gimmee a moment. As the great Arnie S once said 'I'll be back'

[Emma @ Tuffnell Glass]

Right then. Been over to the glass storage and what I used this morning is basically what we have in stock. It's the same batch that I have been sending out for the last few months. I do however have a small amount coming in very soon......maybe Friday but more probably beginning of next week. Please just pm me if you are not happy and would like to swop and I'll get right on it asap.

I will just buy some more and use this stuff under nicer glass. If you have some lighter coloured rods then I definately want some.

Hi Emma,
just a quick query, did you reduce the bead before you encased it or just carry on as normal and encase once cooled?

Thanks hun. I'll let you know when it arrives....and of course after I have had another play. Yes I know there was nothing wrong with the glass I used but it's a good excuse to play again

No I didn't reduce it. I just made a bead from the mix and encase. I think reducing it can make it go yack.

I think your right there, the bigger messes I've made have come when I reduce
