The colors look bland right now because they will only pop up after the beads have been fired in a ceramic kiln at around 1170 Celsius!

New beads on the way!
I often get asked what my beads are made of during my boutique shifts and at local exhibits, and people always seem so surprised to learn that those beads are handmade! I guess this should not be surprising considering how long it takes to make all of these one by one. I sometimes find myself wondering if it doesn’t take a little bit of madness to spend 12+ hours a day making tiny beads...
Well, strangely I greatly enjoy doing it and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon!
Here are some pictures of the actual process for you guys!
