Beads I really like but don't fit in a group

I just love how this blend turned out - like fire or lava

I don't know why I like it, but I do

Filigree, back filled and sanded smooth

Reminds me of Caribean waters

Sculpted. Layer upon layer of tinted liquid clay and powders.

It's amazing how the base color affects the final look - Teal

It's amazing how the base color affects the final look - Red

It's amazing how the base color affects the final look - Black

This is what happens when you're too impatient to wait for the paint to dry and use your heat gun. Fortunately they still looked good.

Red, Gold, Black and Translucent. This combo is truely beautiful together.

I wrote and article for Polymer Cafe Magazine on how to make these

Lightly textured. First I tried oil paints but that didn't give me vivid color so then I tried alcohol inks and that did it.

Pinata inks mixed into translucent clay, swirled, baked, sanded, buffed, glazed.

Faux Marble using black paint, white and translucent clay and a whole lot of sanding

These beads were a surprise. All through sanding, buffing and glazing I didn't like them. After the final bake their true beauty shone through. Metallic clays mixed with trranslucent.

Sanded but not buffed. Unadorned solid colors. Light, dark and medium variations of mixes from blue to purple.
