Benefits. Beads with bubbles

Hello again. Today we have a short lesson on making bubble beads

To obtain this effect, we only need baking soda and any clear glass.

To begin, apply some glass to the mandrel. Remove from the fire and let cool slightly. Then immerse it in soda and “burn” it in the flame of the burner.

Apply a layer of glass on top and watch the reaction begin. When forming a bead, try not to let the bubbles burst.

Let the bead cool slightly and apply another layer of glass. If you heat the bead high enough, the bubbles will start to grow again, but don’t let them float to the surface.

This is how we get such a wonderful effect without much effort! Thank you for your attention.
