  • Calvin Orr, the Bead-Dad of The Bead Gallery, Honolulu has been our main lampwork bead supplier for the last 24 years, and boy are we lucky! He's "retired" from teaching lampwork beadmaking, and only makes glass beads for fun, and we get first dibs, AKA ALL his beads, for you! Even luckier, I get to have dinner when I stop by to look at the newest beads! Winnah!!
    In this video, he shows you the "2 pokes" secret of how to make his best-selling and fan favorite design - the plunged flower glass bead! The melting glass is mesmerizing to all of us, whether you make lampwork beads or not! Watching the rods of glass transform to a beautiful flower bead is always an amazing process, and we hope you enjoy!
    Aloha!! Jamie, Jason, Calvin and the Bead Gang send you a HOT Hello from Hawaii!

    My dear friend passed a couple of years ago and she willed me a huge bag of those glass beads. She just collected them cause she loved them so. We stayed up late at night on her computer looking for beads she liked. Well now they are mine. I really love them 💕

    Wow! I took a class in lampworking many years ago, so I know the skill and talent that are required to make these gorgeous beads. Please show more of these. Calvin, you are absolutely amazing! Loved seeing your little helper too!

    Magnificent! I could watch him all day! That is such a beautiful bead & it is amazing to have seen him put the bubble in the center of the flowers. He is extremely talented. Thank you for sharing this, I enjoyed watching it while I had my coffee!
