Entry into the Australian Beading forum wirework challenge "Head wear". I created freeform "crazy lace" head band with beads woven in and an Eni Oken inspired focal in place of a flower :)
The latest in my erratic but still-going bead challenge, where I offer friends on livejournal free jewelry for encouraging me to learn new beading techniques.
"Swags and Tails" from Julie Ashford's "Spellbound Festive Beading" done with thai seed beads and crystal bicones
My fourth beaded ornament, inspired by the Olympic Winter Games of 2010 as much as anything else. I began with the gold-tone "Celebrate" charm and tried out various beading techniques around the charm and each of the glass millefiori discs.
Cotton fabric and batting, metal charm, glass beads, sequins, Peltex, watercolor paper.
Part of an Eid gift for a friend who I am sure doesn't check on Flickr. :)
I used a blank greeting card to make a bookmark. I cut it so that it has the double thickness and glued them together, utilizing the already-created fold. Then beaded the top - amber Czech glass beads, olive seed beeds in between, and green&gold glass beads for the ends.
When I went to take a photo outdoors in natural light, this is the only (of several taken) that didn't turn out completely white! You can see the card color and design in the next photo, taken indoors.
Possibly my two least favourite beading tools, but... well, there you are. I don't mind the one made out of beech, but I much prefer the heft and solidity of japanned cast iron or bronze.
I wish I had taken a picture of the first pair, but I gave them to their intended recipient before I did so. Andrew's aunt Bonnie had commissioned me to make a pair of "white coral earrings" for his aunt Betty for Christmas. His aunt Barb admired them, too, but requested a pair that was shorter. This is the smaller pair.

I am pretty happy with how this turned out, but I haven't yet figured out a good way to pin it to my coat so that it doesn't twist around on itself.

My friend Jackie so generously shared all her goodies (including her chocolate stash!) with me yesterday and I had a splendid time starting out making my own set of chimes like these with her instruction. The kids liked hammering out their spoons flat and using the press drill to make the hole. A thrill for a five-year-old. The most time-consuming part, of course, is the beading. I'll finish my beading at home and then go back to Jackie's place for lesson #2 -- how to hang them.
Fibulae are an ancient form of broach which was used by the Greeks and Romans on cloaks and tunics. Most were highly curved with a hinge on the pin and were highly decorative along the spine. This is my attempt at this ancient form of jewelry in Gunmetal and bronze. It was suppose to be an entry into the Australian Beading forum "Fall of Troy" week for the year of Jewelry, but it came a bit late

This is what my beading table looked like when we first moved into our new house. It's aquired quite a bit of stuff since then, and hopefully sometime soon there will be color on the walls as well...

Jefferson discovered some pony beads in my craft room and wanted to make a necklace. He spent quite a long time stringing them up, but then took them all off of the string and has spent the past couple of days hauling them around in his front loaders and dump trucks
I just finish this piece last nite. As all can see this baju kurung has only minimal embroidery. To add more glam i play with the simple tussle. Tussle have a good demand from datins.

By REvangeline Designs. Anything can be resolved over a mug of coffee! Right??
Coffee beans by Maria Grimes and Polymer clay beads by Kennick Kreations. Seed beads are light and simple for the tropical Florida climate.
This, along with the rainbow ornament, was one of the ornaments I had a "vision" of, starting me back on the path to beading!
I did make ornaments this year! I just didn't photograph them or give any to anyone. I was depressed/disorganized, etc, so they just sat in a box in my craft room over the holidays. Poor, sad ornaments. This one will be on its way to its recipient as soon as I can get around to packing it up and dragging myself to the post office!
