ROUND-UP TOOL

$49.50


ROUND-UP Tool designed by Heather Trimlett

Those of you who know my work know that I have always enjoyed making marbles with holes in them. To create this style, I started using a marble mold for shaping and have continued using this method for a number of years.

This was a great use of a standard marble mold, but I wanted to be able to tip my bead at different angles while shaping it like I would a marble on a punty. This prompted the design of my Round-Up Tool. See photo details at left.

Think about making pancakes or cookies; often the first batch does not come out perfectly, but the more you cook the better your results. Shaping beads in the mold can be like that. Often the first one is a bit wonky, but then you get a rhythm and your results improve.

Most of my students experience rapid success—I’m sure you will too!
