Here is the group of my hollow formed beads after firing.
Had a little bit of buckling, not sure how this is to be avoided since the beads shrink so much. I’m very pleased overall, this is a style I want to revisit.
Here is the pile of beads all together.
And one of my favorite colors in bronzclay..goooold, so rich and pretty looking.

Looks like the Midas touch!
Thanks, Vickie- if only I could predict the patinas!
