And my favorite of the evening, Crown Opal Glimmer Strips:
By the by, here’s something kind of amusing: remember the Marmalade Melange and the Tie Dye Tide-Over sets on Etsy, and how they sat there for a couple of weeks, and how I mentioned that I was going to rework those sets? By that, I meant I was going to somehow divide each of those into smaller sets, and that would require making a few more beads to round the smaller sets out. Well, that very evening, I made three more beads for the Marmalade Melange set. Literally, as soon as I had finished the last bead, I came in here to check on things and found they had sold.
I made a few more beads for the Tie-Dye set around the same time, but had one more bead to go before I felt it was complete. I got around to making the final bead night before last, and planned on listing the reworked sets today. As I was waking up, before I even turned the computer on, I thought to myself how funny it would be if Tie-Dye had sold while I slept. Lo and behold, what do I find when I wake up today? You guessed it. What does it all mean? Then again, who cares. I have some beads to pack up, hooray!
Thanks for looking, we’ll talk again soon!
Ooo love these! Those are pretty sweet Reichenbach colors. Do you feel they behave better than Czech shampoo glass? I didn’t have great luck with it. I really love the colors and swirly effect of this new glass.
Love the beads, as always!
I can’t imagine how incredible the sparkle and colors are especially on the Crown Opal Glimmer Strips! So amazing!

I have no comparison, I’ve never used czech shampoo glass. I do know that the less time the Reich Mystics spend in the flame, the better.
Yes, the Crown Opals are way better in person. I can’t wait to mess with this idea some more… this week will be dedicated to metal.
Ah well the shampoo glass is pretty finicky. It doesn’t like extended time in the flame either. Too much oxy and you burn out the pearl like effect. If you shape too long it will start to devit. I was bummed because I really wanted to make some hearts. I got just about all the way done and then got some devit at the end! Drat!
Oh I can believe it! You did a great job capturing their magnificence! I can’t wait to see what else you come up with!
