Take your soft glass skills to the next step. This workshop will focus on making hollow beads. If there is time, we may try to make a bead inside a bead.
Learn to solder sterling wire together to make a frame with a soldered ring in the middle from which to dangle Czech pressed glass beads. You end up with a lovely pair of earrings. These skills give you the basis for endless variations for the frame shape and what you put inside your frame.
