Default How does she do this?

This is from an ebayers auction that I have been watching (and getting outbid on) for about 2yrs..She makes the cutest little perfume bottles. How does she make the top part of the bottle..the cork..Anyone know of a book, or video that I could purchase to learn how to make these...I know where to buy the stoppers, but how did she incorporate the glass in with the stopper, or is the stopper glass too???

she may epoxy them together or she may wire wrap them together.

I don't like trying to dissect how other people do things, but I'll be happy to tell you how I do it. I simply create the glass part of the stopper off the end of a mandrel that will leave a large enough space to accomodate the large end of the cork. I then epoxy it in place.
