Portrait beads...

I have to say something about my portrait beads because I am so proud of them. I worked really hard to get an image transfer process that is usually used in glass fusing to work on my glass beads. I now can put images of loved ones onto a glass bead and the image is actually heated in by the flame and then coated with a layer of clear enamel... then decorated. They will be in an advertisement in a few beading magazines because I am now selling custom portrait beads to the public! This is something that no one else is doing... or no one that I know of anyway... unless they saw my work at the ISGB conference during bead bazaar and figured out my secrets as well ;) I just love being able to combine photography (a past focus of mine) with whatever medium I am working with at any given time... Let me know if you are interested in purchasing one of my fully hand crafted creations :)
