I made a little discovery at my local "Dollar Store" that you may find interesting. In the craft aisle I came across assorted tiny glass beads. At first I thought they were labelled incorrectly and must be plastic. I bought a few and tested them. They melted very nicely in my good old Trinkit kiln. I'm going to rush back and get some more. Granted they were actually $2 per package, and they are not quite "Millefiori"...but what a bargain!

Hi Brent,

I would be interested to see how you use these beads.  It's always good to find inexpensive supplies!
