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!

The Tubular Series: Glass in the Forest


The dichroic glass pendant on this necklace was a challenge because of its creamy interior and its odd shape. I chose to hang it horizontally and added the green blister pearl to balance it. The #11 Japanese beads have a peacock green finish and because they are cylindrical, rather than quoit-shaped, they have a sparkle to them in the rope as well. The clasp is a rectangular Jill MacKay design. Completed 5-10-10 >>MPK
