Heavenly Planets

I'm just starting the long process of building my holiday inventory.
 






















Big glass balls with hand hammered bead caps.
They're fun to fiddle, and fidget, with.

























A peek at their underwear - the bead cap bottoms.
























To make this bead you start with a cylinder bead of black, roll that in silver foil (not leaf) and then encase in light amber, pale transparent teal, and pale transparent grass green.
























Now all I need to do is make another 30 or 40 of them.

Gorgeous beads and caps. You don't show the back of the necklace... Do you make your own clasps too? Love the colours of the beads.. I am sure you can manage to make many more!
