Wire Lace Ring – day 214

Posted on Oct 22, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 3 comments

I would like to apologize for not being consistent in my posts, I have taken in more than I could chew so to speak so I ask for your patience and understanding 🙂  I would like to share with you a piece that is close to my heart just because I love anything crochet.  I had no intention of making a ring out of the wire lace I was working on, but then it was 3 am in the morning and when it is that late at night, anything goes 🙂

I crocheted 28 gauge wire measuring approximately 1 1/2 inches x 8 inches long and just folded them into layers and embellished them with beads.  This ring is not for the faint of heart 🙂

Paper Cocoon Ornaments – day 213

Posted on Oct 6, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 7 comments

I loved the idea of the paper cocoon especially around the Holidays.  They can be used as little gift boxes for little presents such as trinkets, truffle or even money.  Lately, I have been using them as purse charms and received tons of compliments:)

I would also write a little prayer or wishes in a small piece of paper and that in itself is a gift.

One can never tire of wearing hoop earrings.  You collect them in all size and shapes.  The extra small paper beads are great for projects like this Beaded Hoop earrings.  I was thinking of something that can go from day to night, so I added some sparkles to it.

Encased Set – day 211

You want your beads to be preserved forever?  Showcase them in metal findings and set them with resin or diamond glaze.  This way you can admire and your beads and it hides whatever flaws they may have.  But then again, I always say that flaws give a piece character because nobody is perfect right?
