This is a metal button that just screams for embellishment.
Kinda looks like a flower, don’t you think?

Found Object Necklace
I got some more of those … thingees. I made a matching necklace to last week’s bracelet.
As you can see, each section of beading is a complete unit. That meant a lot of buried threads. I had originally planned to make the necklace longer, but tieing off all those ends was getting pretty old, so it’s choker length..
Rainbow Bracelet, row 4
Finished the next layer. That’s four layers. It’s getting pretty stiff and a bit heavy.
Rainbow Bracelet, row 3
Got another layer done. It’s starting to be very solid.
Rainbow Bracelet, row 2
I started this bracelet in July, but got sidetracked with the single strand bracelets. There is a post of just the first layer on July 19. Here’s two layers, red and then orange. It’s so nice to take some time and do something just for me.
First Layer of Rainbow Bracelet
Here’s the first layer, red.
I Have an Idea
Here’s a sample of something I want to make. Got the idea from Shelley Nybakke’s bracelet. Now I have to add my own twist to it. It’s going to have seven layers, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. And, yes, that’s the rainbow.
Beaded Bracelet
I made this bracelet a few weeks ago. Just a little slow getting it online. The design is by Shelley Nybakke. I got the directions from Creative Beading vol. 3, by Bead&Button magazine. I really like this book. I normally like to create my own designs, but it’s nice to learn new things, too.
Beaded Cuff
Took an online beading class from Joggles.com. Beading to fabric isn’t really my thing, but I wanted to do something with my mom. She lives 3 hours away from me, so this class was a fun way of doing something together. I seem to be stuck right here. When the fabric is all beaded, it is glued to a metal cuff.
