Terranova and Luna are striking colors. Treat Aurae like you would treat Dark Silver Purple if you wanted to get the same colors that Ms. Naos gets out of it.

I feel this is the easiest glass from Double Helix to work with. It strikes so easy. I reduce it slightly, and get the most incredible colors imaginable. At last a silver glass that isn't a nightmare to strike.

heheh. Aurae and triton reduce if you breathe in their general direction!! The problem/trick is not to OVER do it.
That's what i'm practicing.

i think that may be my problem... i over do it. it does seem to reduce even while i'm wrapping it in neutral, but when i'm forming it, it goes away and never goes back to the pretty purpley color... i get terracotta!?! LOL. i'm reading anouks tut right now. lets see if i can't get this bugger to do it's thang.

Try this you guys, I got some great colors! Make a base bead out of CIM butter pecan or ginger, than use stringers made from Aurae to decorate. I don't have any pics yet, but I made a set the other day and the colors complimented each other perfectly. Great pics, everyone.

Here is my paltry Aurae set that I made the other day. I think some beads are under-reduced, because the metallic sheen isn't so strong, but I was trying not to have them go all silver.

LOL!!! dsp does the same thing to me! i got it, i got it, i got it, then it's GONE! maybe i'm using too much heat, i'm used to nuking my striking colors, maybe i need to break out my trusty hothead and see what i can come up with, i know i can't nuke beads with that puppy.

By far it's my favorite color right now. This is a bead a made recently using clear base encased with Aurae and then goldstone wrapped around, melt the whole thing press and lightly reduce.
I've also encased Aurae over several transparent colors that I really liked too. I haven't found anything it hasn't worked with yet.

Beautiful bead, Donna.
Jack, I love that set of spacers. That is what I was trying to do with my set. But my colors were under-developed, I don't know why.

The metallics you get from Aurea are fab but encasing it makes me swoon. Of course I just used up the last of my Diamond Clear before realizing I was out.

ElleyLoo, try this....
I have good luck with DSP shards. I love AvenueBeads shards,and PurplelillyDesigns as well. Anyway, I get the silverPlum Mix shards from PurpleLilly and use it over Reichenbach Black. the light silver plum in the mix just turns metallic,but the dark plum gives you lovely purples and blue when you just wave it around in the top of the flame. On the RB Black, it looks like leather. It's yummy.  mmmmm, leather....
I didn't mean to hijack the thread, so I will tell you all that I am going to post a couple of pix tomorrow of two beads that I made with Aurae and the technique that I learned in Anouk's new Tutorial. I am blown away with both of these beads; I can't believe that I made them myself!!! 
Tomorrow is the big reveal, (mostly 'cause I am to tired to take the pictures tonight. I know I suck.  )
If I could win the lottery, I would buy Aurae! Sorry, Triton, nothing personal, but you know how it is when you find somebody new.
