Lampworked glass bead II class

Last weekend I taught an intermediate 2 day glass bead class, and it was great!  We had a really nice group, with no one way over their head.  First we made goldstone stringers, then a vine cane and stamen cane, and then finally we made a bead with flowers, goldstone, vines and tiny black stamens, and finished it off with pixie dust.  I took my ice tongs so they could use them- I love that shape, a gentle lentil.  (That rhymes!)  These are some of the beads the class made.  I really enjoy teaching when the students are excited about learning new techniques.
