Calling Jersey Pearl & other beaders!

[Katbran]

Wow I can't believe you started with such a big project !! Well done ! That looks amazing !

 

[Sanippy]

Not the best photo but I finished my first knotted project last night! I used nylon thread (singled) and mostly knotted without any tools - I used tweezers to loosen knots when I made a mistake. It took me a while to get the hang of it, my knots are a lot tighter now but I still stuff up.

I've just ordered needles & beaders secret from Pattye so will have a go using that doubled!

 

[Katbran]

Pattye- those red pliers look good - I'm going to take a look for some !

Hanadama - well done with your knitting . You'll find the Beaders Secret to be much easier for knotting ( and unknotting lol )

 

[battah]

That looks great, hanadama! I love the color combo! Are the black beads onyx? B&W is always a pretty pairing.

 

[Purranha]

Wowza! Hanadama you started your crafting path with a HUGE BANG!!!

 

[Sanippy]

Thank you all!

The idea is to keep practicing my wire wrapping & knotting on these pieces & inexpensive glass beads. I love how easier it is to take apart and recreate pieces. Once I master the techniques I'll move on to proper pearl jewellery.

I have a small parcel of rice pearls from Wen which should make a fun tin cup bracelet.

 

[JerseyPearl]

Very pretty drops! Can't wait to see the finished project.

 

[battah]

Those are great for a bracelet!

 

[kalmen22]

Lovely. Looking forward to your final product.

 

[Katbran]

Those will make a lovely bracelet !

 

[Sanippy]

Experimenting with right angle weave and some fun pearls from Wen today!

 

[Marianne]

Right angle weave strip is perfect with the pearls!!!
