The New Faux Lampwork Technique:

More Examples

Here are a few more beads and bead sets created using the same technique as that described in my newest faux lampwork tutorial for polymer clay and resin:

New Tutorial!

Faux Lampwork for Polymer Clay and Resin

I just finished writing the new tutorial in my Faux Lampwork Series. 

This one explains how to use polymer clay, resin, and one more material to make focal beads that look amazingly like glass lampwork with swirl and floral design.   This third material is revealed in the tutorial.  I bet you will be surprised by what I am using for these designs!   This material is actually very inexpensive and redily available literally everywhere!

Now that I have three tutorials in this series (two of them call for polymer clay and resin and one uses only polymer clay), I decided to offer all three tutorials in a bundle - for a reduced price. 

Both the new individual tutorial and the three-tutorial bundle are availble through my Etsy shop.

Student Work:

Faux Lampwork

I received a few pictures from Nadezhda Dyachenko, who bought my  Faux Lampwork Tutorial about a month ago.

I keep repeating how much I enjoy seeing what other people are doing with my technique.

Nadezhda is experimenting a lot - with colors, shapes, and overall designs.

I especially like her green tablet beads in this picture:
