Based on the lentil swirled beads she designed in the tutorial a most beautiful coat for all sorts of things.
Beautiful, isn’t it?

Beaded Diamond-Shaped Ring
Again a nice ring, this time with a very detailed tutorial.
If I have understood the tutorial well (I haven’t tried it yet), you can make the diamond-shaped part also as pendant or earring.
Anyway, have fun stringing beads ;-)

Ring from Findings
Well, did you always want to have a big and totally unique ring?
However, if your findings are bigger I suggest you look again at the piecemeal table ;-))

Mokume Gane Flower
I love pink and orange, find polymer clay Mokume Gane amazing and like big florets: you can surely imagine how I find the instruction for pink orange polymer clay Mokume Gane florets ;-))

Plaster of Paris Beads
Cute, isn’t?
A great idea to simply colour in plaster of Paris and to cast it in ice cube moulds to get funny plaster of Paris beads.
The jewelry you get this way is more durable but not as refreshing as the ice jewelry ;-)
And if you nevertheless prefer to crochet you don’t have to colour in your plaster beads but can instead wrap them in crochet ;-))

Stained Glass Tile Beads
I always liked such tile beads and I find that the colourful tile beads from polymer clay look really good.
Sigh.

Plastic Bag Beads
I presented already some entries to the subject plastic bags, but none made beads from.
The basic material is a ‘fabric’ from plastic, they’re making beads from just as paper beads.
I like this combination ;-)

Oglala Butterfly Necklace
Actually ruffles are not what I really like, but I find these ‘ruffle necklaces’ somehow fascinating.
I found in internet many pictures of other, equally beautiful necklaces and bracelets.
Later I found another tutorial for these and other ruffles which I used for my beaded bottle.

The tutorial is rather old and I could only find it in web archive: Oglala Butterfly

Paper Earrings
Sigh, aren’t these earrings beautiful?
My various I-really-must-try-this- and I-really-must-have-this-lists are growing further.
;-)
Addendum of June 15, 2010: I got a nice e-mail where she told me that there’s a video with the folding instructions.
Many thanks!

Woven Circles Potholder
What a potholder!
It looks as if it wasn’t very hard to make it, but it looks definitely different from others ;-))
I can imagine it as a piece of jewelry or pin as well when crocheted with very fine thread.
