Beaded Kumihimo – day 196
My last visit to jtv, I got the chance of meeting Anne Dilker, the Kamikaze of Kumhimo as she is aptly described by Kim the energetic host of jewel school. If you know me, I try to incorporate paper beads into everything. I had fun making this Purple Pendant, but then I love anything in shades of purple:)
I think I did a tutorial about this from a home made kuhihimo disc. I love the fact that you can bead the braid itself and it is a mindless task, something that you can do while watching tv or traveling.

I was just thinking about it the other day that I did not miss wearing business clothes, suits and high heels. I am grateful that I don’t have to do that anymore, once a month, maybe. I work from home most of the time, go to the shop, run errands…….and always dress casual but always with jewelry, custom jewelry-paper beads jewelry! I love to mix it with my other fashion accessories. I added a new category to my etsy shop – Accessories, where you will find fun rings, pendants that will go nicely with paper beads.
The acrylic irregular shaped cabochon (meant to be used as mosaics) looks like slices of oranges. They look good worn together.
The orange cabochon are encased in a crocheted craft wire.
The stones are so light weight and comes in greens and blues.
Another day of turning the ordinary to extraordinary!
