New Color for Captured Moments Pottery Beads

I have been experimenting with some glaze combinations.  I am delighted with these, it was like Christmas when I opened the kiln and saw these beauties.  They are a great mix of blues, greens and browns.  A combination of matte and gloss.  My daughter stated that these beads look like looking at the world from the sky. They all vary a little but that is the beauty of handmade. I have some cuff beads and key hole beads ready now. I have more shapes in the kiln as I type and should have more listed soon.  I hope you enjoy the color a New World.
