Back to the beads again. Now I’ve got almost 20 covered beads it’s time to decide exactly what I’m going to do with them!!!
I’ve got it in my mind that they’ll dangle in the living room window as a sort of decoration. They need to be sparkly so I’ve added lotsa beads to the bottom of the big covered beads - well to dangle from them. The original pattern which can be seen here also shows how to add beads to the actual tatting around the bead - well, on the largest one but it does take a phenomenal amount of beads to do that. None stringed onto the thread before starting, though.
In this photo you can see some of the beads assembled but I don’t like the thread showing. I need to get into the tatting cupboard to find my invisible thread.
Then it'll look as though the beads are floating. Going to look amazing!
