Frit Diva Testing Part 6: Floribunda

Floribunda. What can I say, I'm not a very good frit tester, I'm afraid. Take a look, it's not the frit's fault:







Actually, I think it looks best on the lemongrass - the green bead - I like how it spread so easily and the color is still bright. I had to etch the bead though, because I guess it was too hot when I put it in the kiln and it had a little mark from the wire rack it was sitting on. Etching made it softer and prettier though.

Hey, I'm a "Celebrity Frit Tester"!

Yes, I'm going to test some frit for The Frit Diva. How fun is that? Actually, the fun is in the frit, and they do look like great mixes. I love their names most of all, but then that's only because I have not melted them yet: Princess and the Pea, Petulant Petunia, Me Jane, I Like it Like That, Don't Worry Be Happy.





Check out the mixes I get to play with on Frit Diva's website. It looks like she has a pre-release sample pack offer too, if you are like me and can't wait to play!
