Beading with a difference


I made this bracelet from a tutorial that I found in Bead and button web site. This is a very elegant bracelet. The colours for this I found in a book I have called 'The Beader's Colour Mixing Directory'. This book is fantastic for giving examples of colour combination I for one would not have thought of. I hope you agree it all works well.

Beading the bane of my life

I really love it. Tonight I hope to have finished this bracelet.
The next one is very colourful deep blues and purples with a touch of orange . Sounds ghastly I know just hope it turns out better than it sounds.

The Silversurfer surfs again!!

It is a long time since I set up this blog. At that time I found it hard to write about anything but now I have a new interest ( beading) and I love it . It started as something to give me ME TIME but now it has turned into bead time. The problem now is finding time to do the things normal housewives and grannies do. Like bed making , washing, washing dishes, and all the rest.

I think it is the challenge of the stitches and ofcourse the colours. I just love watching peoples faces when they see each new style and combination. One of the things I wanted to do was to keep my hands and brain working together. Well I am doing that and loving it into the bargain.
