I thought my heat control was pretty good lately, but trying to make a bead on the wire proved that I need a LOT more practice. You won't be seeing any curved beads from me for quite a while (if ever ). That is all.

Thank you, Linda, for sharing these! I can't wait to try them both. We go to a Music Festival near Yosemite each year that's called the Strawberry Music Festival. I will be sure to adorne my friends and self with your strawberries!

I found the high temp wire at www.BigCeramicStore.com for $4.99. They are a great supplier for kilns, too. I bought our kiln from them. Unfortunately their shopping cart doesn't offer simple USPS or UPS shipping, but if you want this wire, it may be worth it! In fact, I'm going there this Thursday to buy mine. If anyone wants me to pick up some and drop it in the mail, I will be happy to ablige.

Don't know how I missed the curved bead tutorial when you first posted it-- but so glad I found it now. Thanks for your well-done tutorial and your generosity in posting it.
