Part 2 :)
i didnt realise how much i had done and hadnt shown anyone . oopsie lol .
Anther filled netting bangle this time with swarovski bicones and glass pearls. i don't normally use swarkovski because the local bead shop don't sell them and i actually prefer precosia but i was given these a long time ago and wanted to use them on something so i used them in this. It isnt my favorite one of these bangles but i think that's because its not as simple as the fire polished version and is quiet flexible.
This was my very first hugs and kisses bracelet done in hematite and blue bicones.
i entered a kumihimo challenge a while ago and it was my first time entering a competition type thing. i think i got one vote lol. the other pieces entered where so much nicer but i truly love this pendent the color is just so vibrant and stunning. it was also the first time i finished the ends with a cone style finding which meant using eye pins rather than the traditional simple glue on ends.
The pendant looks almost like a dragon scale hence why its on my game of thrones books. i took this piece in to show Amber (my boss) and she claimed it straight away. i think she liked it lol.
My army of beady birds wanted to be made into something so i popped one on to a keyring and this was the result.
This was another kumihimo bracelet but this time from a pattern by Pru Mcrae which you can find on her page at
http://prumihimo.com/blog/ i love her work and he patterns are so easy to read and she is so helpful as well.
i was asked to make a red and black version for a friend and this was the board as i was setting it up.
i made this version of the pendent which has no name ( i just realized this) a very long time ago and never showed it. this was for Amber's birthday present last year. she wears it every so often which pleases me no end lol.
Im sure there is loads that i still havent shown you but thats all for now. one day ill show you whats in my unfinished works box lol.
see you soon
