Beaded Beads

I'm a book junkie! One of my more recent acquisitions is the book The Art of Beaded Beads edited by Jean Campbell... I've actually attempted a number of the 'beaded beads' but so far this is my favorite.... (scale is about .5 inches high once the sides are folded up and it's sewn together....





The copper beads are copper plated glass....

These beads make great earrings... Yes I am testing the prototype pair!

  1. I didn't have enough patience to do this. Good for you - they're very pretty!

  2. These are quite easy.. I tried the pentagon.. I made my first 6 segments ... and suddenly discovered that that's only half....

    Stupid bead is going to be huge... if I have the patience to finish it!
