I find those beads soo beautiful and can easily imagine them in other colour combinations!
One day…
Sigh.

Washer Pendant
Recently we wrapped recycled gift tags, now washers.
And why not, most of us have enough stash yarn at any rate it looks cute ;-)

Beaded Bicone Bead
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 ;-)

Button Collage Necklaces
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 ;-)

Wire Heart
I really like wire jewelry and therefore the wire heart fits my interests well ;-)
Here I found somebody who shows her wire heart, beautiful, isn’t it?
My list grows looonger! ;-)

Wire Wrapped Pebble Pendant
I saw the instruction about how to make wire wrapped marble earrings and found it great.
But 1. I’d find real marbles too heavy in my ears and 2. I didn’t have any ;-)
So I took a pebble and wrapped it with the same technique with common anodised garden wire.
I think that it is suitable as jewelry only to a limited extent, because I think that the wire does not give a comfortable feeling on the skin. But on the other hand I can say that I can really recommend the instruction ;-))

French Flower Beading
Recently I’ve seen these fantastic beaded flowers at craftster.
Usually I’m not one for beaded flowers but I find these so beautiful.
The thread is no tutorial and it seems that she hasn’t written one yet (I’d say that she don’t want to) but somewhere in the comments they mention a basic tutorial for French flower beading that I found great at first sight.
Perhaps soon;-)

Elissahearts from Polymer Clay
Once I played around with the Elissahearts and found them wonderful.
I didn’t work with the heart mould but just put both halves together. That’s not good because they can more easily break apart.
Just try it youself ;-)

Weave Wrapped Bead Buttons
Once I found an instruction on making buttons by weave wrapping wooden beads and tried it immediatley with different weave patterns: It is great!
I really like the weave wrapping of the buttons and find that the results are too beautiful to be used as buttons, I like them more as beads ;-)
