Wonderful beads already this week !!

Here's another Henge bead from me ..



Sorry it's a bit big, I nicked it from my Etsy listing as I can't log in to flickr atm xx

I'm trying to increase the size and complexity of my focals now that I have a big girl torch.



This one makes me think of fungus for some reason but I can't call it that obviously

Gorgeous offerings this week. I particularly like the ring toppers - I must have a crack at making some of them myself.

After a bit of a photographing hiatus, I have a couple of offerings this week, although there has been barely enough light to see with, never mind take photos!

My new torch and Oxycon arrived last week, so I have been playing with silver glass and trying to get more out of it than I could with my Hot Head. Results varied and I had to teach myself to reinvent the wheel again, hehe. These are what I have made.



I also had a go at one of Anouk's silver glass tutorials which I had some colour success with but it grew slightly larger than I expected, so I found a chunky chain and have named it 'The Beast'!

hi, well I managed to get some time in the 'studio' to make 1 bead for my birthday - not much time mind you but its my first bhb so not too unhappy with it

[Dee Dee]

A quick couple from me.....I am calling them Black Jacks - they kind of remind me of the wrappers of Black Jack sweets!  Yum.  I am not entirely sure I like the focal though....

Trudi, nice set there, Lovely one there Jennie, Nice organics Donna, Love the bricks Helen, The snow flower is great Susan,
Great henge beads as always Les, Nice colours there Tina, Like the Black Jacks Stephanie, but makes my eyes to funny, if fact all are great.
Finally got to the torch yesterday, after the weekend at Di's Class and birthday on Monday, but I have been playing with silver glass again  all on ivory and silvered ivory bases ...... most of them just got bigger as I went along.............










Sorry for the hog

Gorgeous beads everyone - I never cease to be amazed by all the fabulous things you all make!
I don't usually post on here, but just for a change I thought I might show you something I've made. I haven't made any beads for a while, but I've been fusing...

[Trudi]

So many beads on here, my jaw just drops!! Too many to mention, but I do really love the black jacks, so mesmerising. and love the christmas BHB's

Inspired by Julie's revelation on Zephyr .... it inspired me to have a go at this. I don't have any Zephyr but CiM's Cirrus also resists etching!

A bit of a hog I've been having a bit of a play!  A new style I have been playing with, trying to get more intricate detail on the bead.  Some of the pictures look abit dodge, the light has been so grey these last few days I have dusted off my spots and given them a go but they take abit of adjusting.....

I managed to get my grubby mitts on some of Jolene's Secret Garden mini-mo set!  The pictures aren't great, The bead with the raised dot doesn't look nearly so 'scummy' to the naked eye but the camera shows all flaws...

I have also started a necklace to wear with a new top but I'll post that in the finished jewellery section methinks.

Are the pictures too big?  I selected medium....?

I hesitate to put anything up here as there are so many fantastic beads here, just seems to get better every week. But, here are a few small ones i made today, i also have a sizing issue, will have to try the doming block and see if that works for me



not too bad but more work needed  the middle one is meant to be bigger 

[soulsilver]

Here is a Christmas gift I made for a family Xmas gift. Hope she likes it!

[helbels]

Well, I despair at having to follow Shirley's fantastic bead, but I guess someone has to!

Here is this weeks' random medley - still not getting much time on the torch at the moment due to work:
