What is "glass beadmaking"?
Glass beadmaking is the process of creating beads from glass through melting and shaping. It involves heating glass rods or pieces until they become molten and then carefully forming them into beads using tools. The beads can be shaped, colored, and decorated in various ways. After shaping, the beads are cooled slowly to prevent cracking. Glass beadmaking is used for making jewelry, decorative items, and art pieces, and allows for a wide range of creative designs and patterns.
