Glass Bead Making















Hey hey, this is the latest art work i have done~ The GLASS BEADmaking !!!

Cool? huh?

This was my first time making the glass bead and the house owner+ my housemate + my friend, Eva was my teacher (kinda funny huh?the long description i meant)...-.-" cool

Be Serious,okiesS?

The first picture shows the color of the glass rods..There are quite a number of colors available, pick your color and start working on it..




Here are some sample glass rods..



















Prepare all the equipments like the burner torch, glass rods, mandrel (thin rod), gas tank.Also,Get yourself ready for it...



Yeah, heat the glass with very high temperature until it changes to liquid form..





Yeah, these are the products...

Conclusion: Um,
Good teacher + good student + good material = Good glass bead
Actually, the whole process only takes a few minute,and it is simple,why not try to make your own bead??

Cool Tip: Be patient, do not rush when u wound the molten glass around the mandrel.
