I love making these new style beads, and seeing just what the "view" turns out to be when they come out of the kiln is always a surprise. The lime green ones at the top were made with a very rare glass called "Parrot green", which is no longer being made. I still have enough to make perhaps one more set. they also contain a rare purple glass powder that is also no longer being made.
The second set reminds me of the old riddle "What is black and white, but *red* all over?" - a newspaper!!
In the 3rd and 4th sets I really like how the black contrasts with the multi coloured center view.
These beads can be found in my Etsy shop.

The "Room with a View" beads are fantastic! The set of black and red beads remind me of driving through the Arizona desert. They are all drool worthy! Have a great day and week!
Those are amazing, Jane! I love the ones with the acid green/ yellow color.
So wonderfull - especially the green ones.
Remains me at the "Garden-Fragance-Beads" from Manuela Wutschke.... years ago.
I love that beads.
Have a nice time.
Thanks for your lovely comments. These beads actually were inspired by a tutorial by Jennifer Geldard called "Window", and the stringer application was thanks to a fantastic class I took from Melanie Moertel last June.
