I strung some of my beads onto some fine beadalon wire, and used sterling silver for the bead charms. Crimp beads as separators and I have a pretty and delicate looking necklace. I also made a chunkier one of five rows.
The only thing about them is that I suspect the multistrand one especially won't stand up to much perspiration. Perhaps they should be fall/winter necklaces or only worn for brief periods in airconditioned spaces!
Well gosh, I'll should put them Etsy I guess. I hadn't planned to just yet since I am a bit concerned about the durability as I mentioned in the blog post and wanted to do some "beta testing" by wearing them before making some for sale.
I'm trying out Etsy again. I've put three of my most beautiful pieces on to Etsy. If you sign up for my email list, not only will you receive regular FREE downloadable art from me, but also a coupon for free shipping on these wonderful dolls. Already on the list but still want the code? Check the most recent email. Here's where to sign up. Have a good day!
Or so I intend to use what has turned out to be an immense crocheted basket made from at least 200 grocery sacks. Using double and single crochet and scorning a pattern, this is what the new basket looks like. Next to it, the last smaller but just as functional basket for comparison. The large one is roughly 18 inches high, and has a diameter of 22 inches.
Here are some pictures, taken by my husband, of my Barbie Redux doll, "Winged Victory". The exhibit starts August 7th with a reception in the evening. I'll be taking along some of my lovely ginger bread cake. There will be a Barbie look alike dress up contest and a treasure hunt. Her head still moves. I figure you could really screw with someone's mind - every time they look at the statue she's looking in a different direction. Heh, heh, heh.
