Description:
Bright Color Beads & Vessels is a softcover instructional booklet by Jim Kervin that teaches flameworkers how to create brightly colored beads and small hollow vessels inspired by the work and techniques of Heather Trimlett. It is constructed as a 33-page, full-size workshop style booklet with step-by-step instruction focused on achieving strong color while keeping a light flameworking touch. The projects in this booklet emphasize thin disks and hollow glass bead forms, which are core skill builders for anyone wanting cleaner shaping, better heat control, and more intentional use of color in beadmaking. This edition is published as a paperback with ISBN 9780965145893.
How it is used:
This booklet is used at the torch as a project guide and technique reference. A beadmaker follows the illustrated steps to build thin disk forms, then uses controlled heat and rotation to keep the edges crisp while preventing slumping. For hollow beads and small vessels, the reader uses the instruction to establish even wall thickness, manage internal pressure with consistent heating, and keep the form symmetrical while shaping. The methods in this booklet are most useful when you want brighter results without overcooking your color and when you are working toward more refined hollow bead construction.
