How nice of Stuart and what a great looking bench and work area!

Depends on the bead. Spacers are quick, just a minute or two. The bigger focal beads can take up to 45 minutes before they go in the kiln.

It take five hours for the kiln to run it's cycle, but the beads have to stay in until the glass cools to room temperature. The kiln heats up to 968 degrees F and ends at 700. I usually leave the beads in the kiln overnight.

Sara,

I can definitely tell you that Tamara does amazing work and if you like bracelets, you simply must have one of hers. You'll treasure it as I do mine :)

Thanks again Tamara!

PS I'm still dreaming about that black necklace you're gonna create one of these fine days :D
