Coiled Bead Cuff – day 87
This is one of our “Bead Rehab” project where Kayla replaced the silk flower with our Saucer Shaped Bead. I like the “designer” look on this piece and the clean and sleek finish.
We just got the New Saucer Shapes and we are absolutely loving them!
Much as I love the painted beads, the true magazine colors are captivating, don’ t you think?
Totally hand made, that requires patience and time 🙂
Green Goddess Earrings – day 86
This pair of Green Goddess Earrings definitely frames the face, takes an ordinary outfit from casual to casual chic:) Using bead caps is a good way to enhanced your bead, in this project I used diamond shaped paper beads and chose a nice magazine color and encased it with silver bead caps.
Using bead caps is always a nice touch to your bead.
Day to evening? Definitely:)
Wire Wrapped Cone Beads – day 85
I like how the Caged Cone Beads turned out, it looks like one of those “designer” pieces on some beading magazine. I have recently been mixing wire with the paper beads and I like the look of it. Like they say opposites attract?
Here’s a video on how-to:
I love using the non tarnish wire in gold, no need for gold filled (expensive!) it looks just as pretty.
I am definitely loving the caged look!
Our Version Of The Gaelic Weave
The Gaelic type of weaving beads into a leather chord is so popular these days. Here’s is our version using the diamond shaped paper beads:
The bicone shape of the paper beads is great for this type of bracelet.
I love the versatility of this design, practically anyone will look good in it, both men and women don’t you think?
