Default How to make Crystal Beads Tutorial

Hi! The newest video in my series, has joined the Straight Sided Lentil and Straight Sided Pillow tutorials on my YouTube page! I show you how to use the crystal press to make a perfect crystal, and I also troubleshoot both adding and taking away glass! I'm thrilled to be helping to reduce the learning curve for using presses, allowing you to easily create a canvas for your artwork!

Very nice tut, Amy!

The Zoozii's Crystal Trio is one of my favorite presses and I use it often, but I never thought of using it to shape stubby bicones. Think I'll try that today!

Thanks for the work involved in making this great tut,
Helene

I'm glad you found it. Not sure why that link brought you to the SSL. I hope you enjoy it and find it helpful!
