Handpainted Ceramic Beads (Kindergarten Classes)


These were fun to make! The K Classes used overglaze to paint the bisqued beads. Then we took them and made them into funky jewlery...to auction off to raise $ for the school.  Bisque Imports is a great place to buy ceramic supplies. I thought I would share these photos because it might inspire you all in some form or fashion. We had a friend from Beatittudes Jewelry create our finished pieces for us. They turned out way cool! To make the firing of the beads in the kiln a little more do-able...we used a bead tree. They are not expensive but really worth the purchase for doing projects such as this.
