My name is Yvonne Johnson, and after spending the last four or five years watching my husband  making his lampwork beads, it was suggested that I gave the craft a try myself. I had been involved with the beads, cleaning and stringing his work and I have enjoyed selling his work at bead fairs all over the country but I had never sat at the torch myself, so I guess it was just going to be a matter of time before I was looking into the flame.

   I started with  basic spacers and once I had mastered constant size and shape, progressed to use of contrasting colours, including frits. After some months, when happy with my work, I started selling on ebay, spacers at first with a friend under 'Flamed- Temptations', now  on 'gems2findings' where I have built up a good customer base. My range of spacer beads is extensive, but new colours being introduced all the time, and at a competitive price. Thank you for looking.
