How Lampwork Glass Beads Are Made

[@virginiagarcia2802]

WOW! Thank You for taking us on this special visit. It's a labor of Love. Much Dedication and Beautiful work.

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thanks Virginia. It certainly is a labour of love.

lampworking is so fun. beyond just making cool beads you can make sculptures and marbles as well as probably more. the way glass moves is so beautiful and can make some truly intricate and beautiful desigins. it’s very beginner friendly and easy to pick up and extremely fun and calming. it’s exciting to see lampworked jewlery getting a spotlight because people often overlook the intricacy of a simple glass bead.

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much for your comment. I didn't know that you could do all that with lampwork glass so thank you for sharing.

[@roomullan3050]

So much work for one bead. Amazing and interesting to watch

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much, Roo. It really was so interesting to see how the beads are made.

[@nickimontie]

That was very interesting! I have to say I had no idea how they were made!

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much Nicki. It's quite interesting to see exactly how it's done.

[@rosemariehumbert8234]

Very interesting, and a lot of work

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much, Rose Marie. I had no idea that these beads took so much to make. I understand why some beads are so expensive now.

[@leigh9354]

Love this want to see.more on lampwork

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you. As Phillippa was only a guest, and I don't make lampwork beads, there won't be any more videos on making lampwork beads. However, I'm sure you can find lots of them on KZbin. Sorry.

[@charisse-dp4iw]

Excellent tour! Thank you Carol. Very interesting

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you Charisse. I would love to have a try at this but it also feels a bit daunting.

[@charisse-dp4iw]

I would like to try it too but it does look like it takes a very sturdy hand

[@JaneThomas58]

Wow! Cool. Thank you. I absolutely love lampwork beads. I didn’t know the artisans used molds. Beautiful work. ❤

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much Jane. It was really interesting wasn't it.

[@MsRockabillyBopper]

Awesome, I enjoyed that, I've always wondered how beads are made.

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much Debbie. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it.

[@collettejewellerynz]

Fascinating to see how they are made, thank you for sharing 🌼

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much Collette. I found it fascinating too which is why I decided to share it. So pleased you enjoyed the video.

[@earthangel8875]

This is a wonderful video showcasing an Artisan being creative. There's a lot involved with lampwork/firework. I admire the boro glass pendants and have thought about learning, but I'm a bit intimidated right now, hopefully, the more I research I will one day create this type of Art. Thanks for sharing.

[@Sam-ql4ze]

My toxic trait is thinking I could do this without burning my house down. She is so talented.

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Yes, she really is so talented.

[@sofieeewashere_]

G'day Carol... greetings from across the pond...I am so excited to have found you here today on KZbin. So so enjoyed this video! Thanks for this informative video...have always wondered how glass beads were made...now I know lol. I am enjoying all your videos..off to binge watch all of your other videos. Blessings ☺️

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Hi Sofie, thank you so much. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed this video and others.

[@kdtarabell]

And thats why lampwork beads can be pricey, the craftmanship and hardwork,lots of hours ,each bead is unique in its own way. Thanks Kirsten D Ont.Canada

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you Kirsten. I felt the same way. I loved seeing the process but the craftsmanship is outstanding.

[@felchent3591]

Good video

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you.

[@christinelow5336]

Enjoyed the feild trip now Iam sure uou must have been a teacher thanks 😅

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thank you so much, Christine. Yes, I was a teacher before.

[@jchri66]

Any suggestions of machinery that could make glass beads at a higher rate? So hard to find anything online for glass beads.

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Sorry, I don't have any suggestions for you. Lampwork beads are made by hand. There are lots of other ways to make beads including pressed glass.

[@kelsey3016]

How does the stick that you make the bead on not get super hot?

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Great question. I assume that it's something to do with the metal it's made from.

[@Ale-lr1hf]

Please PLEASE tell me how i can start this at home

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Thanks for your question. Please watch part 2 of this series where Phillippa talks about how she got started. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mafSoqaOrqtmp6csi=9RqWwItzmGJH-hdW

[@mddell58]

I have a question, & I hope I don't offend anyone..... That's not my intention. Approximately how much does the entire set-up does it cost to be a beginner at making lampworks beads, etc? (You do gorgeous work!) Thank you. 🎨

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

Hi, I'm sorry but I can't answer this as it's not my set up. Did you watch part 2 of this? There is more information in there about how to get started.
