Christmas in June?
All these Christmas baubles, and more besides, were hand beaded with sequins and pins by me across the course of the last year. I have a Christmas tradition. I bead Christmas baubles for a select group of friends every year. Each bauble is 15 centimetres in diameter and contain hundreds of sequins, varying in number depending upon the complexity of the pattern and the type of sequins I use. Depending upon the colour of the sequin, I will use either a gold or a silver pin to attach it to the bauble. These baubles are smaller than some others I do, however because they can have complex patterns which starts from the inside and are worked outwards in ever larger circles, each bauble takes approximately 1 to 2 1/2 hours per side. I’ll let you work out how many hours, days or weeks there are here. It is however, a labour of love which I do to pass the time throughout the year.
