My original intention was to head here and ask for help on boro and here it is! After a month or so of trying, I finally figured out how to get some of the colors to pop in the flame. SO HAPPY I put them into the kiln for annealing and what do my eyes spy this morning exiting the kiln but a pile of MUD beads! This boro stuff is TOUCHY! I will try the re-annealing idea tomorrow and maybe I can bring the colors back? (BTW, annealed at 1100 for hours........won't do that again)
Sheesh, all this trouble for 6 lousey beads? IF I EVER FIGURE IT OUT I AM GOING TO HAVE A DRINK...or two...
Very Frustrated,
Ms. Booger
