When Sally was up in my neck of the woods a few weeks ago we went on a tour of the local charity shops. I bought the necklace below because I really liked the beads. Well what you can see is sort of half the necklace as I 'got at it' with a pair of scissors!!! As you do, don't you? As there are very few beads locally I tend to use the charity shops as my main suppliers for larger beads that are different.
This is what is happening to it!!!
The 'pattern' I'm using is a bit like the Winsome Drop earrings - but with attitude!! You can see that I'm taking a long beaded picot around the bead as I go. I quite like this - so far!!!
Really delicate!
