Mrs-Bead

Just got back from my wonderful trip to Cluj-Napoca, Romania. It was amazing! I started and ended the trip at Studio de Fericire, where Valentina (she's WONDERFUL!!!) let me take one-on-one classes. She's great at teaching and so friendly and kind. I came to make handmade souvenirs and left making a friend 🥰
I can't wait to see the finished products after firing 😁

Finished my project 🥰

Margarita time!

For the love of Pete! If I (and I rarely do) make something with someone else's pattern, I always have to put my own spin on it. This teeny fella is with 15/0 seed beads and the salt on the rim is 17/0. 2mm Swarovskis for the lime on the rim of my Margarita! So much fun but also oy! Haha -SO hard to see what you're doing on something so small, white thread, silver needle, silver lined 15's ... but it's SO cute 😁🍋‍🟩
Pattern by Meg Thompson

Outdoor beading ahhhh

Final product! This was a passion that was a challenge and fun to design and create. I wanted to make my Mom something special for her **th birthday 🤍
I'm obsessed and want to make more!
(Per a sisters comment, I had to edit out age. I don't believe in this, but hell. I'm proud of my Mom, her age, that she GETS to be older -not something everyone gets to do. Age isn't a curse, it's a God given blessing)

Sunday, Funday! 🌤📿
Tried some 11/0 triangles but I didn't like they way the middles connected. Trying a hexagonal shape... we'll see

Pe**te triangles: opaque vs. colored glass, inside color lined. Totally different depth. I really wanted to make my project in the ICL but with so much pattern, I'm thinking opaque. Your thoughts?

Clearly, I L💜VE paisleys (what with my logo being a Paisley, my Bernese dog being named Paisley 😁) so I started -2 years ago, my self designed pen holder! Which was 95% complete. So yesterday, I completed it before starting another project ✔️🌟
What do you think?!

This one will make you feel like a princess 👑📿😍
It's a seed bead regular, but I wanted to try making one with gemstones; 2mm Labradorite. It's so much better in person
