Omletina Kyckling Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I think they are beautiful, well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bekibutton Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 I'm glad you all like them! Thank you for the compliments! I've made them to sell for charity (see my sig for more info) so hopefully people will like them enough to buy them! The orange one was actually my first ever attempt at making these kind of bracelets, once you get the hang of it they're pretty straightforward and don't take that long to do. I used this crafty forum post to help me with the headpins. Hope to make some more this week And will post them up if you all don't mind?

Egzandra Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Beautiful, I love beaded things. Have only tried doing them with thread or with that fine plastic-ey thread like fishing thread, the name escapes me. Will have to try with head pins, yours are professional looking.

mostin Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Very impressed. I love purples and greens together, do one with those colours for me to drool over please . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 They look lovely. I've nearly run out of computer classes to take and I'm seriously thinking of a jewellery making course next. How long do they take you to make? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bekibutton Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 mostin - typical, the two colours I have the least amount of are purple and green! I'm going to restock imminently (payday) so hopefully will have at least a couple of new items to post up for you to drool over Seagazer, I think the bit that takes longest with these is working out what's going where and which beads to use, and making each individual set-of-beads-plus-headpin. The actual attaching of the headpins to the chain or earring is pretty quick. Does that make sense? If anyone's interested I've made another set of earrings: A bit unusual!
