I have a love of glass, whether it be art glass sitting on my window sill or gorgeous glass beads, no matter how humble, that fascinate me. There was a small baggie of mixed glass beads in the stash I bought from Lisa last year that turned out to be actual vintage Murano. The roses and gold/rose gold tones called to me and I tossed them in with the pile I eventually purchased. Those beads kind of reminded me of painted porcelain bottles from the Victorian, or French Rococo or Baroque eras. That got me to thinking, and seeing if I could make the beads look like antique perfume bottles using bead shapes. Bottle = Murano glass bead; Bottle stopper = metal bead shape/s, topped by a glass bead. I think they kind of work. I have more planned in different shapes, I just haven't gotten around to exploring the theme or my beads towards that end, yet.
