I use the Flamework process with Murano glass rods to form my beads and thread them with waxed cotton.
Biography/Details
I started my design life as a clothes designer, making my own patterns and selling the clothes, mainly using Liberty fabrics in my shop in Bristol.
Since that first shop I have tried my hand at pottery and then fused glass.
That experience moved me into the glass beads. I had a weekend course on Murano with Davide Penso who now runs a school on Murano, Venice. I am mainly self taught.
I love the fact that the colour is mainly predictable so I can plan a colour palette for each necklace.
