So I don't really need more, but I can't stop ;) Brett says I should start selling them...LOL. However, I not sure that I want to turn a hobby into a job. I did that once before with photography!
Anyhow, here are a few of the most recent ones I've made. These square beads (called Tila) are new to me, and I really like the look a lot!
This one I made with just random beads left over from other projects. It doesn't "sit up" nicely for photographs, but it looks good on, trust me ;)
Love this one, so light and bright...perfect for the summer!
Another made with leftover beads of varying sizes. I'm not a huge fan of the button I used though, so I may end up taking it apart and redoing it with a different button:
I get compliments on this one nearly every time I wear it. It's subtle, but I sprinkled in a few Swarovski crystals here and there to give it just a little sparkle:
I adore these stones. I can't recall what they are, but they are so pretty in real life!
Ok, last one ;)
I vote with Brett. These are stunning and you've photographed them beautifully. I see an Etsy shop in your future (make an sell at your own pace). I am especially drawn to the non-metal button closures because I just know my daughter would flip'n love them (she is highly allergic to nickel so avoids unknown metal at all costs).
ReplyDeleteThose are pretty amazing - even I like them, and I'm not big on accessorizing. But those are the kind of thing I would want to give as gifts!
ReplyDeleteAfter I'd seen one of your previous posts about beading I decided I wanted to learn. But, I really think I'd need to have someone teach me. These are just lovely!
ReplyDeleteGoodness, Lauren, these are gorgeous!! I vote with Brett, too, but I can understand the qualms about turning a hobby into a job--the fun is lost when you have to produce. These are so pretty they make me want to wear a bracelet! Love the stone one and the second to the last--wonderful colors. You have a good eye for what works together.
