Fred busy working on his spiral necklace that I asked him to make for me (he needed a project to work on anyway!) He's spent about three hours for the last 5 nights working on it and it's done tonight with the exception of a clasp which we need to buy. I couldn't find one mistake! Very nice. This is the second spiral necklace that Fred has made.

I keep one of these pin dishes next to my sewing machine and one on my craft table. They are great for beading too! There is a non slip pad on the bottom to keep it from sliding or moving around. I painted this with a paint that resists chipping and baked it to really seal the finish.
Design from Beadwork magazine.
I made the blue/green bracelet first, and thought, "This looks like water. I wonder what would happen if I made bracelets for each of the 'elements,' water, earth, fire, and air?" Shown is water and earth. The other two are still in progress.

Based on a project I saw on Artbeads.com, this is for an upcoming birthday. The sparkly roundels (adjacent to the red crystals) are topaz.
Made from peach Swarovski pearls, red Swarovski crystals, and Topaz crystal rondelles.
Now that they've been given, I guess it's safe to say they were for @jessiechar, one of my (now ex-Delicious Monster employees) friends.
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 :)
