*Sits down at the torch* So! Should I start with some nice warmup beads? Nice Valentine's red with white dots! Or some dragged dots hearts? Oh I know! Let's go straight the fuck to using two and a half rods of glass on an off-mandrel whirlwind heart pendant. I totally watched that video one time last week, that should be good enough.
Huh. It was. Except now I gotta make the bail. I kinda... Suck... at that.
This is Not how you do this. But you gotta keep the heart warm while you make the bail and I can't freehand bails to save my life so here we are. I remember when holding the broken end of a rod of glass in my mouth would have bothered me.
Yeah but it worked. Bitch.
I'll show you the true color, cooled version tomorrow. This is actually red.
et voila. Whirlwinds of both transparent and opaque reds, with wisps of white shot through.
I did also make the dragged hearts and white dots.
