"I really like this glass. It was not very shocky, didn’t burn up as fast as other pinks, stayed true to color unlike other pastel transparent pinks that turned yellow or orangish. I didn’t like it over white because it almost disappeared. The palest bead has a twisty made with Dollhouse and Green Opalino over white and you can see how super pale it is. Usually white [at least in my experience] under a transparent makes the transparent pop. The elephant has a couple of minor 'scorch' marks from over heating which tells me it needs to be melted in the coolest part of the flame and for not too long. With that being said, it held up in the heat a good while before making those marks— much better than I’ve seen other pinks do. The mini blown glass vessel was easy to blow. I put Effetre white dots on the pink heart, transparent pink dichro on the lone pink bead [gorgeous reaction] and made a plain pair of beads just to see how the glass looked by itself."
