Last time I combined the little Peyote beads with paper beads, but I find this bracelet interesting, too.
If you make it longer, you simply get a necklace ;-)
And you can make wonderfully matching earrings and rings.

Recently Kokopelli had the problem, that she made a faux Lapis Lazuli, but that it was too matte and looked only half as beautiful as it could have done.
Here on the picture you see beads that I presented before as skewer beads and made following a ‘jade recipe’, but with orange.
Before I pulled the beads from the skewer I buffed them for hours with a soft cloth while watching tv – and you can see how very shiny they became.
I admit that it is much more difficult to buff smaller and/or round beads, but I think that you can get good ideas about this at glassattic.

I always liked Christmas spheres covered with a beaded net.
I find that they look immediately more precious and it doesn’t seem too hard to do ;-)

Usually these wine charms aren’t my cup of tea, but I thought that they’d be great as gift tags ;-))
Somehow I liked the beaded stars on CDs very well, even though I usually don’t like crafting with CDs very much ;-)
I liked especially the beaded stars on CDs that are used on the main site as candle holders.

I found the article through the photo, but I was fascinated by the fact that she describes in her article exactly how I’m always feeling ;-)))
