Finally someone that shows how to use the mandrel globs left over from a twist. Thanks so much. Every twisty is a treat. Encasing black is always nice idea. Thanks so much.
I could not agree more! There can be so much extra glass left on the mandrels after making twisties - or even murrini cane. It's a great way to make the most of it! :) Love the idea of trying this cane over black - it should produce some nice colors with the Clio. Maybe adding a bit of silver foil underneath too...! :D
Nice tutorial ! Thanks ! You have not reduced your Clio, will it still produce nice colors when you apply it to a bead? Would it be possible to reduce it before pulling the twistie? Thanks!
Thank you! I left the silver glass exposed in the latticino so that when applied to a bead it would come in contact with the flame and I could reduce it before encasing. :)

I feel so reassured when I see someone reattach the ends of a pull and go again. I'd love to see you use this cane in some beads.
Yes! There's a decent amount of glass left behind that we can still put to good use. :) I'm excited to test this cane in beads! :D

I add a swipe of base (white) to the edge so I can get my pattern on
That's a great tip! Thank you! :)
