TUTORIALS


So far, there’s only one tutorial, but I have a few more in the works. In the meantime, have fun making Twistys!! As always, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Twisty Beads:
I happened across this bead style after looking at some of my beginner beads and cringing over my then poor encasing technique… I worked to replicate – in an attractive way- the distortion of the base color from bad encasing. It's pretty much a basic distortion effect and is very easy to do, and these beads are a blast to make. In addition, it gives you a chance to exercise basic flame control!
