I do a lot of fine art shows, and generally carry loose beads with me
for the designers that may come into my booth. They're generally not
interested in my finished product, but love the opportunity to buy loose
beads at a show. Do I care!?! NOT! It's one more venue for me to sell
beads. ;-). Plus having my loose beads in close proximity to the
numerous designs in my finished jewelry, actually increases the amount
of each sale. Often I'm asked, by new designers or my non-crafty
customers, " What are these for ?" followed by "What do you do with
them?" ... and that gives me the opportunity to talk about all the
interesting things you can do with lampwork beads! Which brings me to
the task at hand... I'm always interested in what other lampworkers do
with their lampwork beads... the colors they choose, and what they
couple their beads with.... I'm more excited to see what the
Fire Divas are doing with their lampwork
beauties! Why not join me, then order up a set or two, and make something fabulous!

Oh Kathleen, what a fabulous collection. Can't believe all the creativity and interesting design ideas.
ReplyDeleteHard to pick a favorite, but I really love the heart pendant by Sun Door Beads.
Thanks Judith, I'm always amazed at what other people do with their beads... I really like how FenG did her earrings. At first glance I thought they were metal....
