I was sitting at the new Thursday group last week and a friend asked if I could make a pair of spider earrings for her daughter!!!
When I got home I decided to look and see if I'd done spiders before and lo and behold there was one that Terry and I had worked on 8 years ago. Here's the link.
Well I decided that that one wasn't going to be an easy tat and I wanted something a bit more 'blingy' so BC3 was brought out of the cupboard and we came up with this - see below.
Now this has been a bit of a challenge even though it's a lot easier to work than the other one. Why? Well somebody told me that it's Halloween next week and I thought somebody somewhere may like to play with it before then and time is running out!!!
It will be available tomorrow when I've done a final test tat. I do need a pair for myself now!!!
Great earrings. At one time I made a lot of your spiders with floating beads.
ReplyDeleteI'm not terribly fond of spiders but these look lovely and in time for the Halloween!:D
ReplyDeleteI love them. You did a fantastic job.
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of spiders, but your spiders look great!! :)
ReplyDeleteThe recipient will be delighted! It's as if you wave a magic wand and tatted items appear! If someone asked me to make something (which I never encourage), they'd be waiting a long time! I'm sure you have your own pair done already!
ReplyDeleteYes, Kathy and all ready to wear tomorrow!!!! Sometimes things take ages and ages to design but this time I remembered the Tatbead family and used that 'technique' to form the legs so it was pretty straightforward. In fact I 'stole' the original spider pattern too and used that as the base!!! In fact you could say I cheated!!!!
