Thank you for the overwhelming response!
Sorry here is the bead covered in the tutorial. It's from a set I did a while back, but it's more a technique that can be used in any bead you do. I use it in a lot of different styles of beads.
I'll post a pic of the bead alone and then the set and then how I've used the technique in other beads.
It's actually two tutorials on two different technique that are similar. The Rainbow Scale technique and the Rain Drop technique.

A few questions if you dont' mind... BTW, I love these tuts to purchase.
Is this soft glass?
Do you have a few more photos of these beads?
Does it take any special tools or glass?
Sorry for so many questions but I have purchased a few tuts that I will never be able to do because they need either expensive tools or glass that I will need to get. (trust me I don't mind purchasing more glass who doesn't want an excuse to do this

Very cool. I'm wondering if this technique may be transferred into boro, as I am soft glass challenged . . .

Lana: I've never worked with boro before but I can't see why you couldn't use the same technique with boro. I'm sure it's probably already been doing or being done.
Tracey: This is a tutorial using soft glass, mainly reactive glass. I use Double Helix glass but you can use any reactive glass and as far as that goes the technique can also be used with non reactive glass for a different look but obviously without the reactive colors.
No special tools, you can use a press or not use a press, your beas can be shaped by hand. I'll attach a photo of the technique without using a press. In the tutorial I do use a press though.
Other than that, no special tools but any reactive glass. For the rainbow effect though I use terra or Raku or Luna2.

I got mine yesterday evening (well it was here!) - & I just have to say that it is the most clear concise & easy to follow tutorial ever!
I love the fact that I can see more than one step without having to scroll past a picture.
Fabulous, easy to follow, well written instructions & great photo's.
Well done Shari & Thank you
I cant wait to hit the torch tomorrow!!

Well, here's a peek at a bead I made today using this tutorial. It's not a great picture, but I made a bunch of them. I'll update with a better picture when I get some spacers made. I didn't do the spots, but this is something I was kind of working on so I did the lines.

I ordered mine a couple hours ago and am so excited to get it, I know I will be on the torch for hours after I get it, which will mean my house work won't get done but I will have beauties hopefully.
