From Linda Orbanac:
This bead was made using Moretti glass in just two colors. Here I�ve used medium transparent blue and white. I make a hollow bead out of the blue and space dots of white evenly around the center of the bead. I then continue adding white dote evenly spaced, working my way to the end. I melt the dots almost flat and then add a dot of blue transparent on each white dot. The entire bead is then heated and all the dots become even and flat to the bead. I use a stringer of the transparent blue to twist each spot. I find that I have the best success if I start twisting in the center and work my way out to the ends. You get a beautiful bead with some practice. Give it a try. Good luck!
