Yes Cheryl – I’m working on the faux raku tutorials as we speak. Sorry for the delay. I just wish there were more hours in the day to get everything done. I’ve had a ton of requests about that technique so I think it will be a popular one. Thanks for your interest.

Hey Cindy,

Will you be doing the raku technique bead video tutorial any time soon? I have this design in my head and would love to learn how to do that bead!!!

Thanks for all the wonderful recipes and tutorials.

God Bless
Cheryl

@Carol: Thanks, I’m glad you like them. I would most likely do a video tutorial over a written one since I personally am able to teach the technique much better that way.

@Lupe: I will! You’re right they would probably make nice buttons, though more on something that didn’t get washed often, since washing may be hard on the finish.

Beautiful beads Cindy! I just love the Faux Raku style beads especially the crackled ones. They would definitely make great buttons! And I agree they are earthy and organic looking. And I usually have to touch beads because I love the texture and the colors so these are fantastic!
Keep it coming!

Hi Cindy:
I’d love it if you could do a written tutorial on how you do these beads. I think that they are really yummy – like chunky cookies.

Ever since I was a kid, I have loved running my fingers through a bowl of beads! I suspect you and I aren’t the only ones!

I love to drop by your great site. I appreciate comments on my blog so I figure other people do too, therefor try to comment often when I visit someone’s site!

I’m intrigued Cindy, these are beautiful. By the way, I thought I was the only one that loved to plunge my hand into a bowl of beads just to feel them. I do the same thing with buttons. Do you ever make polymer clay buttons? Take care, Susan

p.s. Thanks so much for stopping by my little spot, I really appreciate knowing that you do.
