Yep, more beads.
And some buttons that I’m really rusty at making. I’m going to have to put in more practice time on these. What’s nice about making buttons is I don’t have to clean bead holes in the morning.
Beads, Beads and More
More Beads
I’ll be making beads for the bead show until April so there’s going to be lots of beads – hopefully in the following months.
New Beads and Head Pins
This is what I made since Christmas.
I’m really liking using these head pins so I thought I’d make some to sell at the bead show.
These are some beads I made for to sell at the bead show too.
Just Beads
I’m getting some bead set ready for a show in April. I don’t have a backlog of a bunch of beads sitting around so I’ll be making several sets in different colors to sell. The ones that don’t I can use them myself. I’m sticking with the beads I usually make, not trying to do anything new. Here’s the first three sets:
One More Japanese Crest Pendant
Here’s the last of the Japanese crest pendants I made.
I’m back to making beads for Beads Of Courage to take to the December glass club meeting.
Tab Bead Necklace and Bracelet
What I started doing was try to figure out how silver glass works but in my lame attempt, I started making these tab beads. They looked cute and not knowing what to do at the time, I just put them into a container. Then I found out I had a gift certificate from Rings and Things from 2011!! Yippee!! I was able to get some silver beads to space the tab beads out. I was able to make a necklace and bracelet.
The beads do turn so they aren’t all lined up when worn. I like them moving around. Makes it more interesting.
More Trees and A Pendant
I thought I was done with trees but decided to make some for presents. Here’s the last two I made.
They are so addicting!! I thought about using different colors but since they are ornaments and trees, using the red and goldstone seems like the only fitting colors except for green.
I was also able to get another Japanese crest pendant assembled.
Just took a picture of the front since the back is the same as the previous ones. I have one more in the works……
More Ornaments
More trees and an orange dangle ornament……
The one on the left is going to end up as a necklace. I have no holiday jewelry so I thought a tree would be nice to wear.
Viking Knit Bracelets
I previously made up some copper viking knit and cut it into small sections for bracelets. These are two I just put together.
The second one is my attempt at “organic” beads which I don’t have very good success at.
