Focal Beads

Out of Control Lawn

Well! What else has all those greens? Oh I forgot we have a lawn like that because we do not use weed killer and so we have lots of different weeds. This is one of the big lentils that is 1 1/2 inches across and 3/4 of an inch thick.

$30.00

Let it Snow

This nice big bead is full of sparkle from the goldstone rolled into the glass.  The copper snowflakes are imbedded as well so there are lots and lots of layers.  It is abut 7/8 of an inch thru the center and 1 1/4 inches across.

$20.00

Petroglyph Sun

All the colors of the earth with the picture of the sun.  I just love the way these beads turn out when I make them the silver changes the glass and they are just yummy! Large lentil 1 1/2 inches by 3/4 of an inch.

$30.00

Petroglyph Hammer

Anouther yummy one!

Carnival Tube Bead

For some reason the bright green and orange of this bead make me think of carnival lights. It is 2 1/8 inches long and 1/2 an inch thick.

$20.00

Blue and White Lentil

There are lots of layers to this bead, as each blue layer was added so was a layer of white enamel. It is a large lentil measuring 1 1/2 inches by 3/4 of an inch thick.

$30.00

Round Purple Flower Bead

I am just so disappointed in the photo of this bead, you can not see all the layers and depth in it.  There are leaves and vines incased under the surface then the raised designs are on top. The bead is about 1 1/8 inch thick and about 1 inch across the hole.

$25.00

Raked Purple Tube Bead

I liked how this one turned out the transparent base of the bead lets the light come through to show off the raked design. I is about 2 inches long and 1/2 of an inch through.

$20.00

Pink and Blue Tube Bead

This one is so organic it just seems to be moving.  The pale pink and blue seem to blend together with the black veining almost turning purple.  It is almost 2 1/2 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.

$25.00

Raised Orange Flower Bead

The dark ivory base of this bead almost looks like antique china with the bright orange flower on the surface.  The flower petals and leaves and stems are made of more than one color to make them look more life like.  There is a design on both sides of the bead. This bead is roughly an inch square and half an inch thick.

$20.00

Ocean Tube Bead

The blues and white in this bead swirl and overlap looking just like ocean waves to me.  It is 2 3/8 inches long and 1/2 an inch think.

$25.00

Jungle Night Tube Bead.

The dark greens of this bead have a hint of yellow sunshine.  The colors swirl together and make me think of the jungle.
