After an intense hour of cutting tiny little squares of red mirrored glass we layered 'Epoxy-Sculpt', a new medium to me, on the outside of the gourds and then embellished them with the red glass bits and charms, following with a liberal sprinkling of teeny tiny (hole-less) beads in gold and black. No easy task, as these little beads have a mind of their own, and want to go EVERYWHERE!!! See photo of Lea deftly applying beads to her ladybug edges..
Interestingly Lea and I chose different colored tiny beads and gold paint, so our bugs look very different. Lea's gold beads were a little larger then mine, which gave them a super-tactile look, and her gold color a little brighter.
My Itsy-bitsy beads were darker in color but much smaller, (we used both gold and black beads on the base) which gave an entirely different look!
