| Divine Fusions Studio's Slide show of Handcrafted Jewelry from my Handcrafted GLASS BEAD JEWELRY COLLECTION |
Glass Beaded Jewelry is a glamorous alternative to more expensive jewelry, and the beads come in so many styles,
shapes, and colors. Styles of glass beaded jewelry have cuffs, ankle bracelets, beaded rings and dramatic chandelier
earrings
These days there is even a huge community of handcrafted jewelry makers often referred to as "beaders" and you can
find your craft store and bead stores loaded with everything you need to have a home based-beading business.
In addition, there are those out there that have decided to make their own beads as part of their specialty, and they sell
those beads to other beaders, on websites, at art shows, inside of art galleries and through friends and family, because
there is always a beader in your circle.
The most popular, most artistic, and in demand style beads are lamp work beads.
Bead makers use a variety of torches to form their lamp work creations.
The torches heat the glass rods to their melting point.
The glass starts to turn into a caramel type form that is dripped over a wire rod to form the bead.
While constantly turning the wire rod, the glass is in somewhat of liquid form.
At this point is when the skills of the artist come in, this is where you add accents, colors, applications and you make the
bead your very own. If you would like to read articles, tips and directions on making your own lamp work beads. Click
