Beaded Cuties

I am still always on the look out for good garage sale deals. I found these three beaded cuties for 15c for all... I can't wait to use them in a block.

Not for the squeamish

More spiders!

Here are closeups of two. They are on a crocheted tablecloth I got at a garage sale for 50 cents.

Beaded Spider

Thanks to the link here, I was able to complete my first beaded spider. I think he turned out nice for my first try. I need a little practice on making loops on the bottom.... I thought he was appropriate for a header in October...

             

Another Tree

Here is another tree pendant I made for a co-worker of my husband. I like the fallish colors.

Tree of Life Diversion

I had seen tree of life pendants at several craft shows over the fall and decided to investigate how to make one. The most helpful was this tutorial on You Tube. Here are the results. I think they turned out pretty nice for my first time making one, as well as doing wire wrapping. I already taught the technique to two co-workers and we will all wear them to work on Wednesday.

Last Project Post for 2010

We are on our way to a New Year's Eve Party tonight at a friend's. Not too wild, probably play some games, laugh and eat. I did not buy anything new to wear, but decided to get out my beads and make a new bracelet. I saw one similiar in a magazine and tried to copy it. I am very pleased with it.
