After cleaning up the mess on my torching table, I saw the pile of "shorts" had built up
AGAIN.
So, the game became,
AGAIN.
So, the game became,
use up the shorts.
The only "color" you can add is
Transparent Clear,
but it turns out, I had plenty of that, too.
This Rustic Heart
was made with a short rod of multi color and transparent clear.
I was amazed at how pretty it turned out.
Sometimes, these colors work for me, and, sometimes, they don't.
This time,
they did.

I made this heart and spacers with short rods, again.
Remember what I said about having enough clear?
I was amazed at what I found in the pile!
How about these fun, ruffled discs?
Two very short rods of two different colors went into making them.
The bead release even broke, but I was able to finish them.
Now, for the bead that broke my heart.
See that crack?
Dang it!
However, on the positive side, it's mine for however long it lasts.
I was going to call this set
THE TRAMP!
Hmmmmm! Will I be a tramp if I wear it?
Love it!

I'm sorry about the tramp - you just can't trust 'em. But I LOVE the blue set! That is gorgeous! I need to play your "shorts" game - I have tons!
ReplyDeleteGah, I have so many shorts and they just keep growing in numbers as I avoid cleaning them up or marrying them. I just need to do what you did to use them up and be done with it. Nice job, Mallory!
ReplyDeleteI hope your cold gets better!!! Love the blue heart! Darn Tramps..... ;)
ReplyDeletelooks like you have been busy gal!
Have a fantastic week!
Please don't think I used up all my shorts. I didn't even come close!!! I have one of those big tupperware types of containers, you know, the kind you put a sheet cake in, and it's full. I have a long ways to go!!!
ReplyDeleteChristina, luckily I made these beads before I got sick. I just had to take some photos.
ReplyDeleteNot being a glass bead artist I don't know what a short is but I sure love what you do with them.
ReplyDeleteCindy, a short is the short end of the glass rod after most of it has been used.
ReplyDeleteOh, Cindy, I forgot, Thank you!!!
