Lampwork Bead of the Day: January 18

I'm amazed by these rose beads, made by Lori:

Pink Watercolor Rose Lampwork Glass Bead Set

They look perfectly painted in watercolours. But they're all glass! (Oh - with a dash of pure silver!)

You can find them in Loris Etsy shop, Lori Bergmann Design.

I think they would totally fit in this months challenge theme: Romance! Don't forget to vote!
