Puffer fish beads
Article Abstract:
Making puffer fish beads starts with the selection of a color for the beads that will be used. After a choice has been made, the beads should be formed into two small disc beads. A round hollow bead can be started by trailing a coil of glass on the left bead, holding it away from the flame.
