back to beading

Have hardly touched a bead in a while. I do so many other things it takes its turn I guess. BUT just designed a pair of earrings that i added to the group photos. THey are neat to wear. they were sort of floppy at first so i stiffened them. Now they are great.

Well...these were sort of off the cuff but I will see if I can write them out later this after noon and send you a copy. they are really easy and take 8's and 11's as well as the two disk shaped beads. I am going to try to make another pair with another color soon.
thanks

I would be interested too. Please think of me when you get ready to post. Did you use mother of pearl in the center? Wonderful....

yes those disks were a mother of pearl. I hope to do one with a totally different looking bead but still abouta half inch in diameter.
I have not been feeling too well today so really have not put in too much effort. BUT I will get them written and available soon.
thanks for your interest.

For those you who got my instructions via PM I am hoping you will try them out and let me know if they work for you. I will be teaching a class soon. (you got them for free!) and I would like to know if there are any glitches in the written instructions.
thanks a bunch.

Where would I find the pictures of your earrings? I looked at the photos but did not see anything new about earrings.

check view all pictures at the bottom. and go back several pages. some people put a lot of photos of their stuff so it takes up space. if you can't find it there, then just check out the pics at my profile. if you want the directions let me know. thanks for asking.

Thanks! Love the earrings. Did you use a specific stitch or did you use the "this bead would look good here method? What ever you did ,you did it well.

these are done with a peyote stitch for the most part.
but the top is ladder stitch
and the center bead is "get it in there somehow" stitch!
