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: Fossil Coral


This fossil coral cabochon intrigued me with its spiral pattern, not its rather beigy colors. The #11 Czech bead mix, called "Caffe Latte" (From Beadwrangler) does have some matte blue-grey colors in it, which compliments the beige/tan of the cabochon. I am sure that I'll use this mix for other stone cabochons that I have in my collections, as it suits the natural earthy colors. Completed 4-5-10 >>MPK
