I figured it out!

A minor lightbulb moment came to me the other day... someone else's post reminded me of it. Im not overly fond of bumps on lampwork BUT... there are peices that look perfectly wonderful and just right with them. Ok... so why do I think I dont like them? I think its because on some (most?) pieces they look like add ons instead of feeling like they belong. Its as if an artist looked at their work in progress and said.. "now what should I do?"..and decided on bumps. Maybe thats why I can look at a lot of your bumpy beads *those of you who do bumps* and totally enjoy them. just a little FWIW here. Diana

I adore bumps - but it totally depends on the color and the size - and I am very picky about their placement and the technique used to place them. I don't like messy bumps....but, hey, I am neurotic, so..... I really love bumps that are an opaque color with a transparent color on top - they are very pretty and reflective. I also like black bumps on bright beads, especially if I have beads with a black base elsewhere in the set.
