About the Maker(s)
Crystal Tinsel
[
Beads have always fascinated me. As a child, I formed simple beads of dirt and paper. Now, I form beads from glass, paper and anything else I can recycle. I use a bobcat torch to make beautiful glass beads and have developed a special technique to make unique durable recycled paper beads that I have taught to missionaries to Bolivia, Honduras and at an orphanage in Mexico.
