    Great class Angela! I made a few round ornaments using thin clear glass put together with a picture in between...it's tough to make the solder on the outside of a circle look good with a single thickness. I found double thickness is even trickier for me. Have any ideas on how I could hide all those flaws? Wait...do you have a class on that...yet? Really enjoy your teaching style and looking forward to future lessons.

    Hi, It is really tricky to edge finish a bead around anything round. It involves lot a of practice and touch-ups! It does get easier. Try just doing a half inch section at a time, and blend it into the next section each time more solder is added. I have the edge finishing video up, from the class. Maybe check it out? If all else fails, black patina makes flaws less noticeable! Thanks for watching, and let me know what works for you! Angela
