New work bead embroidery and...


Hi! I am so happy to have this blogger app on my phone it is do quick now. ;)

I have recently been into bead looming it is my second project I loomed on my handmade loom so the work is a bit wrinkly but just a tiny bit. 

"On a Patchworked Path"

Secondly, I have started online 3D bead embroidery classes in a fb group ;) 

The first challenge was to make a pendant with a hole.

I used a cobochon I beaded attached it to the surface, there is herringbone, bead embroidery and daisy chain for 
the necklace ;)
 "In the Garden"

Colour school 3: Trying out a butterfly bead weave

Hi, I surrender to butterfly fascination or attraction- I am amazed how beaders achieve this regular beauty. Far from my ability ;) It has been my attempt to tame bright colours. The various schemes of butterflies are on Pinterest here , here, and  here.

The colour school post was about that it is possible to take two or three primary colours (yellow, red, or blue) and match them with black, white or grey. For an unexpected brightness and vitality.

I have made the little blue polimer beads myself. Rolled in salt then baked. :) For the wings I used here toho beads, preciosa and chinese ones after considerable culling.The wings are made in brick stich then attached to the body. i have used wire to strengthen the body and wings. :)






Here are some inspirational pictures of butterlies:

In conclusion, it was tougher to make than I imagined, but  I like the end result a lot :)

Have a beadful day, take care

Herringbone necklace

I have just started to do something with  herringbone stich, actually I know it quite a bit... In my inventory there is a bracelet, a rope and that is it. Yet this rope is very easy to make consists just of two beads, can be joined with any detail or stone- very light, quick and easy to make, can be in any colour. I liked it....
I have called it (Red shades of grey) :D
