Knit Awry Wire Hairpin Lace Bracelet

You can do a lot with wire – even hair pin lace!
Looks wonderful, the bracelet, doesn’t it?

Oh yes, my list ;-))

But I have already a self-made hair pin lace loom ;-))

Finally a beaded bead again ;-)

I like this one very much, the shape is more dynamic than the one of the easy Peyote beads that I presented at the paper beads.

I haven’t tried them yet (of course!) but I will one day ;-)

Even if the ‘pendants’ don’t really match my liking, I find the idea and the workmanship really great!
In fact she only wrotes as ‘instruction’: “I don’t really have a process on
how I make them it’s a trial and error thing.”
That means that it is my part to realize something to my liking – as necklace, as earring, as pin and so on ;-))
And I have already some tutorials for buttons ;-)

Celtic Circle Knot

I find this Celtic Circle Knot really beautiful and imagine it depending on the used yarn as an ornament on a card, a pin or a hair decoration.
But I can’t show my own photo yet because my fingers were up until now much too clumsy for it ;-))

And when I have worked it out I can possibly even design my own Celtic Knot ;-)

While surfing I found a beautiful spiral button.
I have to give it a try ;-)

If I don’t like it, I can still come back to my own spiral beads ;-)
Or to the folded spirals.
Or the crochet spiral ;-)))

T-Shirt Necklace

I presented already some tutorials with t-shirts, this time it is about making a necklace from the t-shirt (the link isn’t available no more, but she presents a tutorial for a recycled t-shirt bracelet which is done similarly).
When I heard it first I thought: ‘That’s silly’ but the photos convinced me that it’s not ;-)

And if you don’t have a t-shirt at hand take some old stockings ;-)
