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!

Frosted beaded-bead necklace

A technique taught by a bead group member to embellish an already beaded bead produced this cool frosted focal piece for a necklace. Inside this "bead" is a wooden bead, covered in right-angle weave with plain beads and then embellished on top of that with the frosted root-beer colored beads. The focal is on an elastic cord.
It has been described as "organic", "like something from the sea", "fuzzy - but not fuzzy", "intriguing".
I think it is all of these.
