I tried working with silver wire for the first time this week. My client wanted silver bubbles inside the beads. I tried heatin just the tip of the wire and putting little dots, then covering with another layer of clear. I use VS clear. I then added some dots on the outside of the glass. Here are the problems encountered. If anyone could help with advice I would be very grateful. The dots inside the bead went caramel in colour. The dots outside the bead looked as though they had burnt - dark with a little rim around them. Any tips please?
