Inspiration struck!

After going through Touch of Glass, I pulled out some beads and tried to a piece similar to one in the book. I had about twenty gold-foil floral lampwork beads, and used some gold-toned flowers as spacers, and blue Czech glass beads between beads.



I made a pendant to dangle at the bottom of the necklace using a gold head pin, with gold bead caps to surround one lampwork bead.




The whole thing took just over an hour! The Czech beads are from Blue Moon. The lampwork beads were found at a local bead shop. Touch of Glass might be the best book I have in my collection now!
