Woohooooooo!

Got new glass!!

oh anything nice, so I can drool a bit

Ahhh,the potential eh? What a thrill.

Oh hek yeah!! I got some of the new effetre cool colours - kiwi, green tea, mimosa and blueberry marble, and some green metallic copper as well as some staple colours, black and white, green and my current faves yellow pastel and carrot red
Haven't I been a naughty girl!!

The metallic copper turned up a bit broken up so I emailed them and all I got back was 'thanks I'll tell the girls' - hmmmm!

I've got the blueberry marble and hate it, looked nothing like the pic, kiwi is fantastic I need to stock up on that. Copper green is great too I fancy trying copper red. But it sounds like a nice haul and you'll have fun, did you get the freebie.

I'm still waiting for a reply to my email about bottle stoppers, might try again.

Oh that's a shame Cornish. Have you tried it over White or clear maybe. Knowing my thing for green and purple it will probably be making an appearance with the green copper somewhere along the line.

I'm going to email Emma about the green, cis when I took the tape off, more of the rods broke up

I do have the freebie no idea what to do with it tho...

Hey perhaps we should start a thread of what to do with the tuffers freebies each month with a gallery?

Okkayy, well. Not too impressed with cool mimosa, it's clear with the odd streak of yellow. I don't think it's a striker? Cool kiwi is gawjus, blueberry not so bad nor is green tea. Interesting days work!

I absolutely love green tea!

Actually in the light of morning I think I like mimosa again lol. Do you have anything in the new colours you can share Lorna? I'll take a pic of mine later too.

Okiedoke, here's my efforts with the new colours. I wanted to try on it's own, with clear underneath and then with white underneath so each colour goes in that order from bottom to top.
Colours from bottom to top are: mimosa, kiwi, green tea, blueberry marble and metallic copper green.

I've also done some more cabs and I'm pretty happy with those

Yummy Colours! How are you getting on with the flame? and
How long does it take to make one beads?
Would love to know. x

I'm loving it! Oh Zenia you are sSO coming to flame off next year! I guess one plain bead can take 2 or 3 minutes? Complexity sort of determines how long they take - ive heard of people taking an hour or so on major focal beads.

Or if it's me trying to make a round or donut bead, far too long

Some nice glass there might have to purchase some ASAP
