Got Teeth???
I'd really like to make some big giant teethy smiley beads. Anyone have any teeth/mouth tutorials?
|
I would be interested in a tut for this also!
|
I remember lripster used to have them in her Etsy shop, which I think was Cloud11. Let me search and see.
|
|
I'm sure one of loco's tuts probably feature some teeth.

I saw some beads like these and figured out how to make them on my own. I cannot remember whose they were so if anyone knows lmk please ? They are not hard..well I don't think they are anyways. PM me and I can 'splain it to you if you want 8-) |

teeth
Most welcome.
Took me about 3 tries to get it down pat but it wasn't what I call hard. I am a newbie ( 1 yr of torching almost daily ) but had no major issues with these, other than trying to make 'em when I was tired.. now that was not a good idea :oops: Was thinking it might be a nice freebie tute ( for the teeth / mouth only ? ) but am worried it might infringe on someone's paid for tute? I don't know of one for sale.. but as i am still somewhat new I am not going to do one unless I know for sure there is not one already available. So for now.. PM me and I will 'splain it to ya !\\:D/ |
I hope I replied to everyone that PM'd for the how to on the teeth beads.
If not.. LMK. I am going to try to do a Tute this weekend with pics ( providing the heat is bearable ) and will post itin the freebie tutes section. Also.. would love to see pics of your teethy beads if you make them ! Happy 4th everyone in USA ! :fireblob::fireblob::fireblob: |

I would love a tut also!! \\:D/
|
Awesome!! I would love a tut too!
|
Gonna do the tute with pics this weekend. Have to get the kid to help out with the picture part ! :biggrin:
The tute will be for the TEETH part.. ok ? Which will be on something else like an animal or alien or something. Oh and it will be FREE. I found out who make the original beads that I loved and figured out how to do on my own - Patty Lakinsmith. Fantastic lampworker ! Will post here once it is ready and uploaded. Thanks guys... you all have made me feel so good and I am excited to be giving something here. I have learned so much from this forum. |
I was just thinking to myself the other day while I was torching that I needed a tut on how to do those cute toothy grins... I am thinking my dragons could use a smile...
|
Hey Sharon, they look like Patty Lakinsmith's to me, she makes beads called "meanies" I think. Jeri
|
Hey Jeri ! ,
Yuppers... we found out who it was a couple days ago. I am going to put the teeth onto something else for the tute. Love her work and am in no way wanting to take anything away from her. I just figured this out on my own by looking at the pics now that I know more about glass. :grin: Thinking of something that would be good for BOC since I am making the tute for everyone to use. Would be a good purpose! btw.. I LOVED learning from you last year Hot Times !! I really learned a lot from everyone since I was such a newbie. thanks for being a great teacher=D> |
Thanks Sharon, I love Hot Times, how about teeth in a huge red lipped mouth pendant? Something smiling and cheery for the kids. Jeri
|
Sounds fun.. will see if I can do it lol.
|
Awesome - so quirky!
|
These would be great for BOC! What is the outcome of a tut? I don't want to bother Sharon again with a pm....
Thanks! |
Ok.. so here is what the tutorial is going to be on :
They are flat backed beads but rounded in front. It was easier for me to make the teeth on a rounded bead as opposed to a flat one. ( trust me. .the flat ones were scarey looking :lol: I like the flat back so they sit well - helps keep it from flopping around when worn, since they are front heavy. Do ya'll think these are ok for the tute?? Going to be torching later today when it cools off a bit more ( I work in my garage - no A/C ) and making pics as I go along. This is NOT going to be a polished pretty PDF folks ! Just warning ya. Pictures and written directions + tips and thoughts on the process. Should get it done and uploaded within a day or two. Won't take longer than that. \\:D/ |
ADORABLE and so great for BOC! jeri
|
Thanks Jeri !!
|
Oooohhhh chompers.
|
Oooooh, would love to try this!!!
Thanks Sharon, can't wait! Sue |
I love those!!
|
Those are so funny looking, I love them. Can't wait to see the tut, thanks.
|
Love them!! and thank you for doing this for us tooth challenged peeps!!
|
Perfect!
|
I'm dying to see it! Those beads are hilarious!
|
Can't wait! My mom's a dental assistant - teeth are right up her alley.
If this works, she's going to have a new necklace to wear to work. |
So we took pics tonight. Still have to go thru them and resize etc. then will do the writing..so if the pics turned out good.. this will be up sometime tomorrow.
I am tickled so many of you want this tute !! |
I can't wait to see the pics! I tried them and they look nothing like yours do. I need help!
|
I'd love to make some of these for the kiddos at BOC too.
Thank you for sharing with us, will be watching for the tute! |
Thank you
MarthaMaria |
BOC and Halloween or cheshire cat . Ooh too many things to think of.
|
I can't wait!
|
Those are fantastic!
|
Ok so there are A LOT of pics... so I'm making it into a PDF. Will prolly be finished late tonight ( into the wee hours in other words..I tend to stay up till 3 am or so lol ) ...but IT IS COMING !
|
This is very kind of you to do!
|
This is taking me longer to to do than I thought...I am halfway done though ! So it will be sometime later today - Wed - before it gets posted. Beware though that some of the pics are not the best.. but you will get the idea I think. Thanks for being patient. Until later today.... wishing everyone glassy dreams :smile:
|
I have always admired these beads! Looking forward to seeing the tutorial!!! Thanks for all the time and effort you are putting into this!!!
|
I think Mick would really want those too!(the above beads with the cute pink tongue) Thanks...you made me.....smile? Lolol..

Great idea Sharon - the kids will love those. :-)
|
Thanks Sharon, very generous of you. I know one kid that would love these for Mardi Gras.......ME!!!
Oh yeah Halloween, and how about a rolling stones day, and quite a few for BOC !! |
Is it soup yet? :lol:
|
Last night I decided to practice eyeballs. Wow, I'd love to add some teeth to these eyeballs!!!!!
http://users.zoominternet.net/~beadg.../eye_balls.jpg Can't wait!!! Candy |
Wowzers !!
I did not expect this kind of interest. :shock: Patty, Thank you ! Your li'l meanies are what got me going on this. I LOVE those beads ! I figured out how to make the teeth by looking at yours. You rock ma'am.. s'all I need to say :biggrin: Awww Candy... those are just too freaking cute. I did finish the tutorial. I am trying to get it converted to PDF to make it smaller and easier to download etc. I have it in Word Doc right now. If anyone wants it that way you are welcome to it. Am looking for a converter right now that will work for me. |
Sharon, my computer will easily convert a word doc to pdf. If you want to e-mail it to me at lajewelrydesigns@aol.com, I'll gladly do it for you. Just send me your e-mail address. You've done enough. Glad to help if I can.
