Mind Melt: Winter Colour Diet :: Session #8
http://melanie-graham.blogspot.com/2015/05/winter-colour-diet-session-8.html
104 COE Glass Colour Testing Results and Glass Musings. May 9, 2015. Winter Colour Diet : Session #8. As it turns out, I like these colours enough that I am just going to keep right on going with this palette for the forseeable future, using stuff up and putting new colours in as I run out of things. It's a healthy way to work through the unwieldy stash of glass I have in the spare room, and I work better with this structure in place. Bead, I dub thee 'Clown Paint'. This bead used a twistie made from Abs...

You and Me: The Journey. Things that are not made of glass and aren't calligraphy. Some are art, some are craft, some are funny. Pastels are a good time. Bold color, decent coverage. Quick and dirty. Literally dirty. Art that gets on you and leaves its mark at the end of the project is extra-fun in my book. The drawing on the right was one of a bunch that were lost in a fire. The photos from that collection are not that great, but will forever remain some of my favorite. Yep, it was 2003. This pendant re...

104 COE Glass Colour Testing Results and Glass Musings. May 28, 2014. Test Results : Clockwork. Is a vibrant, happy orange transparent. It is not as easy to strike as Effetre Striking Orange (072). But it is not difficult either, once you get the hang of it. It's easier for me to strike this colour in larger beads than smaller ones. I'll put it on my wish list underneath 'Transparent Coral'. Than anything I've ever seen in nature. Ignore the weird mark that looks like a crack in the right-most bead. ...

Reducing Tangerine Sparkle without any additives does not seem to have any impact at all on the colour. Deep in the Tangerine Sparkle, as you might imagine, there are sparkles.
