Ballerina is one of Creation is Messy’s misty opals and it’s such a pretty shade of pink.
The smaller the bead, the less opal mistiness you get happening and the glass appears transparent. You can see this in the spacers.
The hearts, however, take me a while to make and there’s a lot of cooling, shaping and reheating involved. You can see the resulting misty opal effect best in the thicker top half of each heart bead where there is more glass. The photograph below with the light shining through the bead really shows off the mistiness.
Ballerina was smooth and not at all shocky to use. A really beautiful glass.
The beads were photographed indoors in natural daylight.
