Introduction and Welcome

Hello to Old Friends and New Friends!

Welcome to my Bead Designs Log, where I describe bead creations I have made and some backstory and inspirations where applicable.

I am creating this blog to have a place to show pictures of what I have made. At this time, some of these pictures are scans. I explain this because sometimes the colors are not "true"; and I will say so in the accompanying captions. When the time comes to re-photograph these items, I will replace or addend the pictures where I can.

It is also a place to solicit comments on my work. Please be kind. This is the closest I have ever come to having a gallery exhibition!

Enjoy!

Copper Caprice



Float copper from Michigan is the central piece in this no-nonsense bracelet. Across the center strand of beads is a single dark bronze pearl. The bracelet contains black crystals, pearls, copper-lined bugles, matte black and copper #11s from Jane's and a few Poppy Jasper chunks. The two side copper pieces are pure copper beads from Bead Mine. One of these days I'll have to get back there, get a couple more and make a pair of matching earrings. The button clasp is copper, too. Completed 5/08. >>MPK

Postscript - I guess I'll never make matching earrings - The Bead Mine is closed.
