I had an intro to beading yesterday from my Auntie who has a craft shop and kitted me up with all kinds of goodies and her gorgeous friend who is so talented!
I made a necklace with red beads and an amethyst one with matching earrings!
Help me I can feel a new addiction brewing ;)
Anyone else into beading?
Its addictive isnt it?
I used to have 5 different types of pliers, reels of tiger tail and assorted beads, fittings an fixtures all over the house before I had DS. Once he came along it was a choice between the fabric and the beads, and the fabric won.
I still love it though and used to make and sell jewellery.
I have some beading tools and a huge amount of beads. Don't tend to make anything for everyday, but for my medieval & Viking hobby. Always on the hunt for the perfect bead for my collection.
yep - i have two massive "fishgin tackle" boxes full of all different types of beads!
I went a little nuts for my besties hens night and made a tonne of necklaces, bracelets and earrings with the Swarovski crystal bicones for her pass the parcel game. I love beading but have to be in the right mood to just sit and bead.
I wish I could weave with beads it looks so complicated.
Would live to have the time to make enough and sell them at the local markets.
Whats everyones fav type of beads??
ooh swarovski butterflies and venetian glass would have to be mine :):
