Mix Stones And Paper Beads – day 113
I love using gem stones with paper beads because it does not only give it more value it makes you appreciate more the beauty of paper beads. Bicone shape paper beads are wire wrapped and mixed with jasper, adventurine and onyx.
Big wire loops are part of the design….
I love how this piece turned out.
Bead Tubes Chained – day 111
Paper Bead tubes in what I call parfait colors are attached to a metal chain, for an eclectic look. I love mixing metal and paper sometimes, kind of hot and cold, water and fire in the spirit of opposites definitely attracts!
Just another take on the Ladder Bracelet look:)
Flower Medallion Pendant – day 109
I love how this Flower Medallion turned out, it started out as a project following a certain pattern and ended up as being free form. I love using the small paper beads for weaving projects that calls for seed beads, like wire work and peyote stitch, which I want to try one of these days.
I have a video I want to share with you on this piece…..
I love the fact that it can be worn in different ways.
I made little earrings from the left over fresh water pearls with just the hematite color seed beads to match. I love when you wear matching pieces as long as it’s not too matchy, matchy 🙂
Strands Of Magazine Colors – day 101
This is necklace is made with just the tiny paper beads in random colors, no spacers or crystals to distract from the beauty of the beads that came straight from magazine pages!
So light and elegant and certainly can catch attention:)
Note: I have received from Manou and Claire photos of finished jewelry from the bead swap, hopefully can share that with you today or tomorrow.
