Animal Beads and Glass Candies

SKU:

DVD109

Description:

Animal Beads and Glass Candies is an instructional lampworking video that teaches techniques for making animal-shaped beads. The presentation is simple and demonstrates the construction of 12 beads. It also provides a logical approach to the design and creation of additional animal and novelty beads beyond the specific projects shown. A bonus section covers making glass candies. The format listed on the product page is VHS.

How it is used:

This video is used as a skill-building reference for lampworkers who want a clear construction sequence for animal beads that can be repeated and then adapted into new designs. It is particularly helpful when you are working on clean assembly of small elements, consistent proportions, and finishing details that make novelty beads read clearly. The glass candy segment is a practical exercise in controlled shaping and surface detail that carries over into other small sculptural bead work.
