Marianne

Here are bead pictures. Just a variety I grabbed last night. I am sure I have lots more but they tend to be left rolling around in the bottoms of various cases! You can have anything here for $2. They were heading to my bead garden! :) Let me know if you want any of these:



These are a bit more expensive but I really like them. They are so fun and colorful. This is my 'playtime' stuff!

 The bead on the far left is really big, but the very end crackled a bit when I was cleaning it. It is still intact and a bead cap will cover it just fine but it is flawed! The first 4 are $5. The next 2 (green and blue) are $4 and the end blue far right is $3 (This covers the cost of the glass).





The color swirls through these like a marble which is what the end pic tries to show. They are fun!
Good Luck with everything. If you have more questions I will do all I can to help. I know it can be intimidating! I would love to see your work. I'm sure it is beautiful!

More 'UGLY' Beads!

Thanks for the great response to the last batch of 'ugly' beads I posted! It is really fun for me to play around with the colors and selling these little gems helps pay for the 'pretty' beads! You all are the best! I have a few more to add the list. These are in pairs, so there are 2 of each available - perfect for a pair of earrings or use them individually! I mix and match mine and put them into bracelets. They are really fun and I sell a lot of these!

I work these really fast mainly to test color and reaction so they are not perfect but are still really beautiful and very useable!

They sell for $4 a set plus shipping. If you want one I will send singles @ $2 each. They are all

#1 -  12mm These have a few bubbles but are really beautiful beads!

#2 - 12mm  I like these because they are feminine yet have a very earthy feel. They really match a lot of things - not just pink!


#3 - 11mm (SOLD)

#4 - 14mm  LOVE THESE! Again, a cople tiny bubbles. The second bead has a sharp top, not noce and even, but a bead cap or wore will fix this. I will file it down a bit so it is not sharp.


#5 - 14mm (SOLD)

#6 - 14mm (I have 4) I think I will call this Mars meets Venus - What do you think? I really like the feminine pink wrapped around the more masculine brown.
(SOLD)

#7 - 12mm  These feel like ocean movement to me and I love the ocean! Really pretty!
(SOLD)

#8 - 10mm  I tried to work this too hot so the bead on the left hass some bubbles. The camera really magnifies them. The bead is really pretty. The one on the right is nearly bubble free!
(SOLD)

#9 - 14mm
Oooohhhhh....Aaaaahhhhhh!
(SOLD)

#10 - 13mm
#11 -  I have 4 of these 2 @ 10mm, 2 @ 12mm
(SOLD)
#12 - 12mm


#13- 12mm I have 4 of these. 3 @ 12mm, and 1 @ 15mm


#14 - 10mm x 18mmSomething a little different!

I think that's it for now! Now I will work up bead sets from these testers! They will be posted at jujuglass.etsy.com in a couple weeks. Meanwhile, if you are interested in these, just contact me here or shoot an email to jujuartstudio@gmail.com. Or I am on facebook JuJu Art Studio, too!
