I was hoping one of you could help me figure out why my Clio beads are very blue/green instead of pink. I also see red, which I am guess is coming from the striking orange.
This bead is layered on white, then striking orange, then Clio, followed by encasing in clear. I added too much glass, I did not realize how big this bead was going to end up, but at least I can see all the details.
Steps:
So, I tried to heat up the Clio until it was very bright orange, but I didn't let it get droopy (should I go further). Then I reduced it until it started turning opaque (should I go further here). Then I covered it with clear without putting it into the flame. Once covered I gently worked it until I had my shape.
The Bead is a little wonky but I was really hoping to see pink this morning.
