Cuzco Sunset II $250.00
Be still my beating heart...this is one stunning set! After seeing these lovelies emerge from the kiln I asked Bill for his "recipes" - what color combos did he use to get reactions like this. Either he's telling tales, or the colors he used created some amazingly unexpected results. These are easily some of the prettiest beads I've ever seen come out of my studio - I wish I could say I made them, but the credit is all his. The beads are encased in a color called "Northern Lights" - it's clear with sparkling shimmering specks that dance off the light. In the pictures below it may look like bubbles, but it's not...it's shimmering specks that are part of the glass. Up close it looks like bits of dichroic suspended in the glass. The colors range from soft apricot and pink to creamy sage and khaki to shades of blue every color of the spectrum. There are 16 beads ranging in size from 7x12mm to 11x18mm. A gorgeous set of beads!

Don't Hate Me Because I'm Beautiful Bead $200.00
Do you like the name of this bead? I've named it that for a couple of reasons...for one thing, it is beautiful...for another thing, you may hate me for it because I've given it such a high pricetag. This bead turned out just so stunning that I can't bear for it to go for too low of a price. My apologies, but this is worth every penny and then some! I won't be heartbroken if you choose not to buy it, and if you do I commend you for your good taste! Now, about the bead. It is done in a beautiful soft tangerine veiled glass, topped with weblike strands of "autumn harvest", encased in a beautiful thick layer of crystal and topped with shimmering metallic shards of glass. The weblike strands are filled with colors that just make this bead so delightful. It's a sleek, tapered "crunch" shape, which is just so elegant. It measures in at 30x36mm

Flirting in a Paris Cafe $150.00
I know it's a silly name for a bead set, but it was the first thing that came to mind when I'd named the original set (this is a remake). I've never been to Paris, and I don't know if I've ever flirted in a cafe, but it's the type of things you see in the movies and everyone loves a sweet movie set in Paris! This is a set of very basic beads...no embellishment whatsoever. These are done in the straight sided lentil shape, more commonly called "spree". The colors are so pretty...ocher, czar (blue) green, apia blue, opal raspberry, flamingo, and opal violet. These are some new colors I just got my hands on and I just love them! I hope you do too. There are 12 beads in the set...18mm each.
