Default Looking for a book or video on glass-beads

My customers won't pay more then 2-3 Dollars/Euro per glass bead so time
consuming beads are out.

I think the best beginner book out there is Corina Tettinger's "Passing
the Flame". It's pretty pricy, but worth it. You can find it at
http://WWW.corinabeads.com. If price is an issue, then Cindy Jenkin's
book "Making Glass Beads", is also a winner, as is the more
expensive/advanced sequel, "Beads of Glass". I don't have any videos but
I hear Jim Smircich's is very good.

There is a lot of good beadmaking information in the glass forums at
http://www.wetcanvas.com, and also at http://isgb.com.

My links are in my sig, if you want to check out my work. Have fun
playing with glass!
