I have developed a variety of looks with my beadmaking that I have grouped into categories based on certain characteristics. They all use silver leaf. Space Gems are Effetre Ivory and Vetrofond clear. Galaxy Beads are Effetre Ivory, Vetrofond Black, and Vetrofond Clear. Raku-style is the black and ivory without clear. Electric Blue is a certain look I get by using the tool I invented - The Electric Mandrel Spinner. I use it to get those fine lines. The blue color comes from the silver. Rock Candy beads are a mix of these that usually don't have a lot of depth and have a great color variety.

I have been making lampwork beads since 1998 and I am also now making tools for glass artists. My beads and tools have been featured in various publications such as Bead & Button, Lapidary Journal, Crafts Report, Bead Review 2005, Cindy Jenkins' Beads of Glass, Glassline, Bead Unique, and more. My tool line includes; The Electric Mandrel Spinner, Rolling Marvers, The Ultimate Hand Stabilizer, Holey Marvers, Powder Vibe,and more. My goal is to keep us in the field longer by reducing repetitive motion strain, while also enabling you to increase your production and your palette of techniques.
