Default The silver wire mesh on beads

Hello
I'm new here! I just wanted to know if anyone knows how to apply that copper/silver mesh on to beads that Wacoho glass works sells? I just ordered some from them and now....I don't have a clue how to put it on the bead....
Remember....I'm new here so be gentle!

I've always used it by putting the bit of mesh on my marvering surface, superheating the area I want to apply the mesh to, then pressing that part of the glass onto the mesh.

Are you talking about Howaco, or is there yet another new seller I need to plunder???

Yes, I was talking about Howaco, I had spelled it wrong on the blog, sorry.
Thanks for the tips I have a set listed right now on my ebay with the copper mesh.
