My first ever lot of lampworked beads arrived in the post this morning. I was the lucky buyer of 2 of Kandices sets that she posted on her site before she went away. I got the Lime heart and the Royal Blossom sets.
Well they are even lovelier in reality than they were in the photos, and something I hadnt considered - they feel great! All the little flowers and squigglies just feel wonderful.
I am a happy bunny! :-)

Oh, cool! I am trying to work my way up to one of Kandice's sets; right now I still have to hunt around for the ones I can afford but with any luck I will be able to buy some of her beads soon. She does such wonderful work!

I never considered that lampworked beads might feel good too... isnt that the oddest thing? They do! They start out cool and then warm in your hand. The textural bits feel good.. and on top of that they are beautiful to look at. Congratulations on getting some Kandice beads!!!! Diana
:) Glad you like them Ally!! :)
Ahh - you are now hooked!!! I was also a little surprised at how great the beads feel. My first one was an etched bead form Tink and it feels wonderful. It may never make it into a jewelry piece be cause I like to hold it!
