COLOUR 10- SILVER - DEC07-Jan08

[beads-on-toast]

Here it is!

This is the tenth colour challenge on Frit happens and it is for two months as i know how busy we all are over the xmas period, and it is

SILVER

This is inspired by the FOIL/LEAF thread that has been started and also the lack of Silvered glass i use!!!

You can make anythin that takes your fancy however it must contain silvered glass (Double Helix) Maybe Silver Plum, Foils, Leaf the possibilities are ENDLESS!!!

A focal, a set a critter it is completely up to you.


Sound good?

So lets go!!!

The next Colour challenge will be started in February

Hi!
Just wanted to show you a crunched bead I made with Ornela ivory covered in silverleaf, then burnt the silver in, did some scrollwork with a transparent stringer and then reduced the bead (after pressing and firepolishing).


It looks as if it were covered in goldleaf, but it was silverleaf.

They are lovely, everybody. I love that Nyx & silver leaf set. Verena, that bead is gorgeous!

Thought I'd play this month - anything clear and sea-like I had flying around, silver foil, and some of beadysam's fun'n'funky frits:

Absolutely stunning silver beads on here, my turn then, its hard to choose as most of mine have silver in them somewhere.

I call this one silver tipped



This is a set of kronos beads



and this is silvered and enamelled

Some more from me:



And then.......I always wondered how people get to a signature bead, develop their own style.....there is so much to play with....but I love doing these:

Sabine - that middle frosted one is beautiful!

I've been playing with the Barley Bead recipe in PTF
