Experiment With Texture

I love the shape of peanut beads and thought it would be fun to try using them in a tubular peyote stitch necklace. Two colors of gold tinged raspberry beads were blended in this tubular rope necklace.

The end caps were made with brass bead caps, gold glass pearls and pink large hole beads.

 

 

The next necklace has a rich earthy texture that was achieved using a random mix of 11/0 and 6/0 Chinese glass seed beads in metallic silver and brown.

 

 

The polymer clay end caps were made by me.

 

 

Both necklaces are available at my shop.

 

 

 

 

Joining Flat Peyote Stitch

Just completing the final touches on a peyote stitch bangle bracelet. Joining small sections of flat peyote stitch is fairly easy. The secret involves keeping good tension with your thread before tying off the ends.

This bracelet is custom made for a new client who loves pink.  Seems like I have been working with lots of pinks and reds lately.  It must be the holiday ;)  How about you, have you been making anything pink?

Big Bad Beautiful Bangle Bracelets...

These bangle bracelets are not for everyone. They carry an inside measurement of 9.25 to 9.75 inches. Big, bad, and very beautiful.

The foundation is plastic tubing, making them soft, flexible and very fun to wear. Stop by my Etsy Shop for more information.

Big, Bad, Beautiful.
