Reviewing Bead Designs

Twice a year I take a second look at beads I've designed and just haven't promoted. Here are a couple I designed awhile ago - you can see the 2006 copyright on them - I made them during the winter of 2006 and took them to bead show in NYC that year.

I'm liking them, I think like the Glyph beads, they should be revived. Grouped with the Glyph beads, I can see a whole series like the Heartz n Skullz.


Opinions? Do you like these beads? What would you call them?

As always, I'm in love with your beads. They make me wish that I had partially finished pieces that were dying for a focal bead. Alas, I do very little beading.

What to call them? Other than awesome, I'm at a loss.

Stringer! My other love besides sculpting the glass! You do it so well, Cindy! That ancient star map really shows your control, very nice. I think a series of these would be wonderful. I bought a book about amulets and talismans not too long ago, and it seems that people have always treasured symbols and worn them close to their bodies.
