Swirls
This bead was left over from this project. And honestly, I'd be much more inclined to wear this simple pendant. Swirls just make me happy.
Thing-a-day is a yearly creative sprint where, every year in February, participants commit to creating one new thing a day and post it on a collective blog. 2010 was thing-a-day's fourth edition and the first to run on Posterous. We're gearing up for 2011 so come back mid-January for more updates!

TAD Day 22 – Deerstuff’s Coloured Dreams: “The Duchess” (flower-brooch & photos)
Today I've made this flower brooch using black & dark blue tulle, silk, organza and some faux pearls & seed beads for the center. I'm pretty happy with the result but I'd really love to hear your thoughts!
I think one of these days I'll make a bracelet for this brooch and maybe some earrings, too...

Todays thing is more beads. I got a bit into purple as you can see.
I did manage to get the redish hue I were after to appear, but not as easy as I had thought it would be.
I have cored a few of them already, but one broke because I weren't paying attention :/
I am pleased with the lot though :)

TAD Day 16 - Deerstuff's Coloured Dreams: More Flowers in My Garden ;)
"Pluck this little flower and take it, delay not! I fear lest it
droop and drop into the dust. I may not find a place in thy garland, but honour it with a touch of
pain from thy hand and pluck it. I fear lest the day end before I am
aware, and the time of offering go by. Though its colour be not deep and its smell be faint, use this flower
in thy service and pluck it while there is time."
(Rabindranath Tagore)
security beads
To prepare for an upcoming workshop, I'm focusing on upcycling paper. I've wanted to try to make paper beads out of security envelopes for a while. I love the different patterns on the inside of them.
