Hi Kare,

I really did not do anything special to it. Just in shaping the bead and decorating it, the color struck in the flame...then annealed at 1050 for 1/2 hour. Sometimes this works for me with purple colors...sometimes I get mud. The purple thunder seems easier to strike for me than some of the others and it is a nice, rich purple.

Sandy
