Blown glass shards can be a creative and fun way to add a lot of detail to your bead designs in one simple step! Often you can just create a single-color base bead, wrap it with a shard, and have a beautiful, finished piece without too much effort.
Of course, it's also fun to add a little flair to shard beads by twisting the glass, adding raised dots or trapped air bubbles, and even embedding sparkly cubic zirconias. :-D
In this video I show how I apply my own hand-blown glass shards to a small size round bead. It can be a bit tricky on these sized beads, but by using the heat of the flame carefully you can create gorgeous beads!
Please note: There is no speaking or teaching in this video, it is just a demonstration for entertainment purposes only. As such, I will not be offering any advice or information as to the colors, tools or techniques I use. If you learn something new, that's great! But the video is really just for your enjoyment.
Thanks for watching! :)

What color is the shard you are using? Thank you.
I’m pretty sure these were mottle shards which are made with thin layers of reactive glass like Raku, opaque turquoise, copper green, etc. then blown.
Thank you so much.
