The office assistant (pictured) and I have been busy packaging beads and jewellery ready to send next week when we move to alert level 3 👍😁 #lampworking #glassbeads #handmadewithlove @ Waikato https://t.co/W0BMypVaiC

The colours in the finished bead (bottom) are much brighter than the top video which is the hot bead ready to go in the kiln for annealing 👍 #lampworking #glassbeads #flameworkbeads #bobbiepene https://t.co/UQpjTfADxS

[Bobbie-Jo Pene @BobbiePene]

This bead had a transformation in the kiln. Top is hot before annealing and bottom is the finished bead 💜 #glassmagic #lampworkbeads #glassbeads #flamework #bobbiepene https://t.co/3BJH8Jt4q3

[Bobbie-Jo Pene @BobbiePene]

Above is the hot bead from yesterday before annealing. Below is the cold annealed bead. Note the depth of colour from annealing? #lampworkbeads #glassbeads #flameworkbeads #bobbiepene @ Waikato https://t.co/T7QhOiHg2S

Bead #2 today into the kiln to work it’s magic. I’m expecting more orange and sparkles when it cools 🙂 #lampworkbeads #glassbeads #glassart #flameworkbeads #focalbead #bobbiepene @ Waikato https://t.co/X6Fs2jLzAq

I have been making glass beads since early 2009, these were the very first beads I made. The little plain amethyst one was the first. I have come a long way since then through countless hours of practice 😊… https://t.co/rUZDHhhBjy
