Learn Lampwork at Home

If you are gutsy enough to try making beads all on your own, then you may want to check into the various videos available from Crystal Myths. Hey, it might be worth a shot! You never know.

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to start making more beads and gaining more jewelry making skills. Don’t know if I am brave enough for lamp work but I think soldering a little silver could be my next step!

It’s really not that hard, but the kiln and equipment can be a rather large expense. I’d recommend trying it out in a class or at a friend’s before deciding to dive in. This video has great info (I’ve got the basic one and used it as a refresher), but the best thing I ever did was to take a two-day intro class.

Best ~
