Little glass piggies, but which pink do you prefer? The bright candy floss pink or slightly more subtle dusky pink? Or should they be another colour altogether?
Pink glass is very precious, it is often made with gold meaning it can be very, very expensive and sometimes difficult to work with - it can go black if over heated or burnt 🥵
