Welcome to my web site! Lots of big changes this year! I've been really getting into doing watercolors and will be offering original works as well as matted and/or framed prints (I'm suuuuuper excited about this!!) My work is generally a bit quirky, fun and colorful and definitely reflects my obsession with weird little houses. But I paint pretty much anything from coastal scenes to still life. But I'm getting a great response so far and that always makes any artist happy :) These will be listed as I paint them. All prints are sold matted in a clear cello sleeve and ready to display as they are. Frames will also be available in the options for each listing. I'll also be doing all sorts of new things like Greeting Cards (singles and boxed sets), Gift Tags and whatever other fun stuff I can think of!
So please do check them out and pop back in occasionally to see new work as it's listed!
I'm still trying to phase out my Etsy shops and this will ultimately become the only place I sell on line. It's not an easy transition but it'll eventually happen. And 1000 "Thank Yous" for being here!
I wish you all a happy and prosperous 2025! ♥♥ Tracey
Like Magic.....Handmade Murrini Chips...Millefiori Slices......COE 104 silver glass reactive blue Beatlebaby Supply
Only 8 left in stock
Like Magic....
A reactive glass murrini that develops colors, well, like magic! Depending how it's worked you can get almost anything from blues, greens, purples and earthy tones! So Hot!!
How Many: 20
Colors: (after cooking) Yeilds different shades of Blues, Greens, Earthy Shades and even Purples depending on reduction and heat intensities
Size: ranges from 2.5mm - 5mm across
To use: These are made with a reactive glass so they'll need to be "struck" in the flame. Simply heat a spot on your bead, waft the murrini slice in the flame to warm it up a bit and stick it in the spot you want it in. Alternate heating and flattening until it's flush w/ the surface. Get the murrini VERY hot in an oxidizing flame then cool fast on a cold tool. Waft in the back of the flame to let the colors bloom! Works best covered in clear.
*Some experience with striking/silver glass is best. Not a good beginner murrini
*Beads in the pictures (if any) are not included in the listing and are for demonstration purposes only
*Free Shipping on multiple orders! Pay for one, get as many more as you want for no extra shipping! These also ship free with any other order from the Beatlebaby Supply shop :)
