Melted Moments Monday

Melted Moments Monday. I am always intrigued by coloured glass and how it will react in the flame. This cup melted nicely and I like how the earrings honour the glass, with the bead being darker at the bottom and lighter on top!

Melted Moments Monday

Melted Moments Monday. This cup intrigued me when I found it in an op shop. The purple stem was like a rod of glass and I was curious about what might happen to the gold in the flame. I loved melting this glass and transforming it into beads. I was thrilled to be able to make two very different pairs of earrings from all of the test beads. Love the new hooks on the bottom pair!

Kandinsky-inspired beads

I’ve always loved making variations of these beads — sometimes square, sometimes round, and this time, flat oval shapes.
Originally inspired by Kandinsky’s Concentric Circles in Squares, this series keeps evolving with small tweaks and subtle shifts.
Same idea, fresh perspective. Now to turn them into jewellery!
