Framed! – day 51
I just love working with brass components because it is almost like tarnish free and it’s not gold or silver and no one can real ask you or wonder is that real? The bead frames is great to show case your paper bead or any kind of bead really.
This piece has tiger’s eye bead frames and crystals.
Long necklaces are so versatile and so easy, instantly dresses up a plain outfit. I’m sure this will look layered as well.
Painted Buds – day 50
We had some leftover findings from the brass earrings purchased at the dollar store from previous projects….
So many cones enough for jewelry set and then some.
Small round paper beads were painted with nail polish.
I love how this turned out…..
A…spoonful Of Paper Beads-day49
I challenged myself one day to try and find anything in my kitchen, and incorporate it into a jewelry piece, in the spirit of “found objects” turned into wearable art. Here’s what I found:
A rusty measuring spoon which I didn’t know has magnet on the bottom. I filled it with the ice resin (I think diamond glaze would work too).
You could wear this as a pendant too. It would make a great gift to someone who loves to cook or someone who constantly forgets where they put their keys. Hmmm…..that sound like most everyone I know 🙂
Like Lava Bead- day 48
With all the different kinds of paper that are out there, paper bead making has possibilities that are just endless. Do you collect paper like I do? Here is one that I find at a local art shop, black poster paper that has crater like texture to it.
Here is the close up of it:
I cut the whole length of the paper with a base of one inch and here is the result: lava bead!
I thought the painted red saucer beads would be a good mix.
I was going for big and bold and Asian inspired.
I incorporated onyx bead, some coral bead and gold bali beads to complete that Asian look.
Just the way I like it: big and bold 🙂
