Off Mandrel Tut for pendant/heart

[beadandi]

I searched the tutorials before posting this so if I missed it, let me know. Are there any tutorials for the off-mandrel pendant-looking beads, hearts, etc. They are so awesome.

I wish all the wonderful teachers out there would get together & write an incredible book for those of us who can't get to their classes. There are so many great teachers but not too many of them get to my neck of the woods...or even close.

Thanks,
Sandi

I feel your pain Sandi! There are a ton of lampworkers here, but we never seem to have "big time" teachers come give classes. I'm starting to travel out of state to take some \\:D/ .

Here is a link to Mr. Smiley's off mandrel heart.

Also, Chad (Cosmo) has some wonderful tuts at his site!
