The way it inflates from this lumpy thing into a perfect clear bubble really shows how magical glass is

I come back to this tutorial over and over. It’s beautiful to watch and so well done. Thank you 🙏

Wonderful tutorial Kerri! Hollow beads are probably my favorite & are featured in nearly all of my handmade earrings! It’s fascinating to see how they’re made! I have to comment (as I did last week), on your voice! You were made to do this! So soothing, steady & sure! Wonderful! 👏🏻

You are the sweetest, Shannon! Thank you so much! I'm so glad you are enjoying these videos. I'm working on the next one now! :)

Yes, I sure did like this helpful video. What I learned is that when building up the disks, being on top of the flame utilizes the heat that rises up from the flame... Yea .... AND I learned that the swipe method is okay... I have problems keeping a uniform snake going down consistently as the disk I'm making turns. Now I see - your way works too. For sure I'm going to try it your way next time. WooHoo! Big happy happy here. 'appreciate ya, Kerri.

Hi Babette! I'm glad you found this tutorial helpful! There are many different ways to create hollow beads so even though there are other tutorials out there, I thought it would be helpful to some to see how I do them. Everyone has a different approach and so it's sometimes good to try different techniques to get the result you want. Thanks for your feedback and happy torching! :)

Thank you Kerri - this was a pleasure to watch.

Can't wait to try this! Your talent is amazing. I tried these many years ago and was never successful. Is the Bear Foot tool a must? Thank you again Kerri :)

Hello, I love your hollow beads. It's a great tutorial, thanks. I just have one question: how do you get your bead release out of your bead??? thanks in advance

I wonder if she uses a water pic?

...so great. Wonder how do you take them out.

When you dip the tools into water, do you also have to dry them off before using them again? Sorry if I missed it in the video; I'm puppy sitting 😂

Hello, very interesting! And is it possible to print a logo or a letter on such a bead? Thank you!

Hi Kerri. What do you use to clean the bead release out of the hollow bead?

Looking for advice on removing bead release, that is why I have stayed away from transparent hollows. Thanks

Podrías agregar el proceso de desmonte de la perla? No he visto ningún video que lo muestre... aún . Gracias.

Were your rods in a warmer or is the room warmer? I can't dip my rods in that quick without it cracking. Any tips?

may I ask what colours do you use? Thanks

Hi Gabi! I used Effetre dark and medium amber and light purple. :) But you can use any combination of transparent colours for a lovely effect!

how do you take it off the mandrel?

@KerriKeffelerlampwork

I use a vice to hold the mandrel. Be sure to soak the bead so the bead release is wet first and then twist the bead gently. It works like a charm. :) I hope that helps!

Please spend a few seconds at end of videos to show completed beads. It would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time

such a sweet lady
