Sliding Knots

rubysbeadwork Sliding Knots

When you’ve made yourself some beautiful paper beads or plastic bag beads, you may want to make a necklace with them.
And if you don’t have a closure at hand use simply this sliding knots necklace.
If you don’t like it, you can always more or less quick make a closure yourself ;-)

Plastic Bag Beads

The NewNew 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

Artin Xhoroom 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!

Bead and Wire Cuff

Doesn’t this cuff look most beautiful?
I like best that there are as well empty as well ‘well filled’ spaces and that there are many little beads but this big eye-catcher as well.
She also describes how you can make it yourself – great, isn’t it?

Recycled Roses

I find these roses from fabric or paper most beautiful, even without wreath!
And it seems that they are easy to make, which does no harm! ;-))

They should look great for jewelry, too, for a ring or earring e.g.?!

If they’re not exactly your cup of tea simply look for flowers from fabric or flowers from paper ;-)
