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!

Flamingo Teal




This uniquely shaped bracelet features one of my porcelain cabochons. Surrounding it are salmon colored round dyed coral beads and blue dyed coral nuggets. The matte teal #11 beads come from Shipwreck Beads. The clasp is a magnetic square set on a point. At first, the idea was to "capture" the cabochon in a netting of #15 beads but I didn't want to obscure the tiny splashes of blue and tan. Perhaps I'll try that concept on another bracelet. 8-08 >>MPK
