Day 11 - Scrappy Beads
Still on the bead-making run. Actually, I’m almost always on bead, cane or jewelry-making crazes if I’m happy… sort of if you’re happy and you know… make beads. Building millefiori canes in clay makes scrap pieces of otherwise fabulous shades and designs. So two fun techniques are to swirl them into the little spiraled UFO shapes or to make mirror-image beads by cutting and opening bits of scrap up.
Here’s a few from today’s batch:
And on the blog post of mine there is a picture of all of today’s scrappy beads plus a better view of the ones I made yesterday. Phew. Serious beads!
