Sept 2013 Soda Lime Times is coming out at midnight
It's that time of the month again...time for a new issue of the Soda Lime Times. This month's theme is All the Glitters, and it is all about adding sparkle to your beads with dichro, goldstone, pixie dust and silver and gold foil.
The tutorials are a little different this month as most aren't about making a specific bead, but show you techniques for making your own beads glitter and shine.
Miriam Steger shows how to use small scraps of prefused dichroic on your beads, and in the tutorial she makes the bead in the photo.

Corina Tettinger will demonstrate how to encase silver foil with transparent, something you can use as the base for floral, aquarium beads and anything else you can dream up.

Yeah, can you believe it? I'd never heard of it, but apparently fusers use it and I've just been in a deep, dark cave where nobody tells me about this stuff. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. Bev comes up with the coolest things to share in her KISS (Keep it so simple) tutorials. I think the woman is a genius and if I lived in Australia I'd beg her to let me spend a day with her.

I'm not positive but believe (started as a fuser) what is being referred to as dichroic paper is called Dichroic Slide ... and you can punch shapes out of it like paper.
I have a small piece I bought in the garage sale here on LE .. have yet to play with it. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

Yes Laura, I do think it is the same stuff as dichroic slide. I definitely want to try some myself. I'll just add it to the ever growing list of new tricks I want to try. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

Oh Cherri, I know midnight CST is late for some people on the east coast. Not too much time left. I'm thinking we need to launch this in the morning because I hate to think I'm keeping my peeps from getting their beauty rest.

Hi Shardi, we did a great Halloween issue last year, so we decided not to repeat the theme again this year. But we'll have a super issue about making murrini and cane and applying it to beads. John Rizzi is our featured artist and we have tutorials by some great artists. Who knows, there may even be a Halloween design in the mix.

So many "ah-ha" moments in this one. Love, love, love. My only regret is that I have to go to my actual job and can't play today.

Oh my, I'm laughing so hard I think I scared the cat! You made my day Beth!
Thanks Laura, Sheri, Jenny, Patty and Jill. I'm so happy you are enjoying the issue. I can't wait till the weekend when I can go play too. After all of these years I still have a hard time playing hookey during the week when I have work to do...but one Saturday...look out dichro, pixie dust and goldstone. I'm coming for you!
