OT: Marbles

Well, they're not beads... But they're sparkly and round. I've been playing around with marble making lately. Thought I'd share my first two florals. They're kind of sucky, but I like them :-)

Kind of sucky?? Then I don't want to see the non-sucky ones 'cause they'll kill me for sure! The sucky ones are absolutely stunning!

Those are so cool! I like the one with pink in the photos. Why don't you like it?

The flower didn't "bloom" as much as it was supposed to, and the colors changed during the process. Also, it has a rough spot on the surface.

There's more, but those are the primary reasons. LOL!

I will get better. I will.

Only interested in the cherrywood molds if you've kept them soaking and cleaned the whole time. I bought one a few months ago that had been allowed to dry out. Ruined.>>>

They are still wet Cheryl last semester of lawschool! yipee! DRAGON BEADS Flameworked beads and glass
