Description:

Making Dichroic Beads with Pat Frantz is an instructional lampworking DVD that demonstrates techniques for incorporating dichroic glass into handmade glass beads. It is designed to show the ease of working dichroic glass into bead designs, helping lampworkers understand practical ways to apply, heat, and finish dichroic accents for strong visual impact.

How it is used:

• Watch the demonstrations to learn methods for adding dichroic glass to bead surfaces in a controlled, repeatable way.
• Follow along at the torch to practice heat control and timing so the dichroic effect stays bright and clean.
• Use the techniques shown to build bead designs where dichroic is used as an accent layer, focal striping, or surface detail.
• Apply the workflow to reduce trial-and-error when first learning how dichroic behaves in the flame.
