Some new pieces- playing with wire crochet

I made the earings back in May. But I had one blue stone left, so I decided to make  a pendant, as not to be a wasteful person ;) . I have played a bit with wire crochet on the central part, the basis it is a ceramic button, that I bought with the kids we each chose one button. I liked the texture. I  used a brick stich for seed bead detail.

I used: a ceramic button, cut jadeite,  jaspes rondelles, wire, sequins, toho cylinder beads, rivolies, cheap swarovskies, size 15 toho beads. hematite beads, leather.

So here is "The Grass snake eyes".

Three HR projects

I have used herringbone to make these HR bells- they have three branches- wonderful to suspend something suspendable from inside.

 The title is CIRCUS- very inspiring dangling beads, remind me of circus gown or curtains or clown's trousers pattern. It was fun to make. My wirework needs practice so much. ;)


Another project is a herring bone bracelet and earings- THE LAGOONI have used two techniques: twisted tubular herring bone and branched herringbone. This is the tutorial for the twisted one at Inspirational beading page.

My kids' impatient hamster came into the scene :)

The last piece is beading around the rivols- quite easy to bead with herringbone as well. THE HELIAD'S EYES

Happy beading and trying herringbone- for me there is one last it seems HR prioject a necklace....
