My sister fromArizona came to visit and brought with her a few of her latest creations. I Loved them and she talked me into trying my hand at beading my own. After finding a couple Bead stores here in Klamath Falls,
We gathered a few beads and needles and thread.. Well as you can see a few turned into a LOT of glass seed beads.. and now I am hooked. I know where my extra pennies are going to be spent...
The aqua one on the left is one she made and I made the lavendar one . Also the smaller Russian Spiral purple. * this was my first project* Shown by itself also...Now I have completed an aqua Spiral and a rust & gold one. I need to have her show me again how to connect the clasps... I will see her this next week when I go to Washington to my Moms house. Clay will be crabbing with a friend while we entertain ourselves at beading.. The last picture is of the Bracelet I want to make next.. My Arthritis or carpel tunel in my wrist has flared a bit so I have taken a few days off... hopefully I will be able to make another this week... I am Hooked!
I have had requests to make some to sell and if my hands will allow it. I will try to accommodate those requests. Don't you think they are pretty? Now I must stay away from the bead store for awhile.. I plan to go to a great bead store in Washington on my way to mom's called "Shipwreck Beads." Oh! my husband is gonna love hearing this..... Well, I need some more clasps & a few different shaped beads to do the next project.... Stay tuned... for how that turns out..
