Another Swarovski Beauty!


Not a very clear picture as I can't seem to get the light right. I used Black Diamond and Haematite 14mm rivolis, set in 15° and delica beads.

Final Piece For C&G Course


A mobile phone cover!

The piece had to be something a little different from the work we had previously been doing, with a bit of our personalities thrown in. I spent ages trying to think of something and was originally going to make a framed, beaded picture. The only problem with that was the square stitch, which I HATE. So, I decided to go with tubular peyote and this project came to mind. It is not something I would make again as the time invested was huge and the cost involved was also too much. However, it is my own design and I am pleased that I made it.

Peyote Discs Continued...


This is what I have done with the discs so far. I am making a choker and a pair of earrings and intend on being able to wear them to my course tomorrow, so they are going to double up as my TTNP on Crafter...oo tonight too! I think this is probably the most work-intensive piece I have ever made but I am proud that it is my own creation (apart from the actual pattern for the disc). I will NOT be making another one though as I think I could easily make these discs in my sleep now!

Peyote Discs

These were from a Pandorion pattern which I have made as part of my C&G Course. I am going to make them into a necklace and earrings for my final 6 sets. I still need to make several more discs and think of a way to include them into a necklace but I am working on it. I love the colours together - really me!

Brick Stitch 'Feather' Pendant

This pendant was inspired by some earrings in a book, but only loosely. The actual design and make-up was my own. I love the mix of turquoise and brown/bronze - it is so lovely. I am going to put this in my Folksy shop without a chain, so someone can decide for themself how to wear it. I could not decide on a ribbon, chain or thong, as all would look lovely in my opinion.

Rings From Bead and Button

Not a great picture, but these rings are so easy to make and look really sweet on the hand.
