For the past bunch of weeks, when I couldn't make beads, I've been annealing "fresh" dichro strips I've been cutting from sheet. The kiln can run whether it's windy or not, thankfully. I finally got the urge to work with it earlier this week, and kept having disasters. Thought I'd lost my touch, which put me in a serious funk. Well yesterday I found my groove again. Holly-ulah! as my son says.

Holly-ulah, indeed...

You say you did this from dichro sheet? Please elaborate. I don't have a sense of how this works...

Thank you very much, that gave me a good sense of what goes into the process, and why you do it.

I love knowing the 'how' of things. I appreciate you taking time to explain. And I look forward to seeing more stuff that employs it... I really like what you did in this batch.

Oooohhhhhh, so gorgeous! Especially the purple flutter! And the picture is divine, Karen. Mmmmmmmmmm

WHOA! I love them but not THAT much.
