Christmas is coming... Ho Ho Ho



I've been working hard on a technique called a 'petal' bead. I know the 'look' I want, and I've actually achieved it on a few beads... alas I can't seem to repeat the process... so I continue to experiment, and practice. Here's picture of on of my 'good' ones







And some more of my latest creations that I put on bead pens, from www.INeedToBead.com. Great customer service and reasonable prices on solid metal pens (not plastic).

Hii Elaine,

Your petal bead looks wonderful. Well done. How did you do it? Is there a lesson about it on WC? I'll go and check in a minute.

I love your pens as well. They are beautiful. I think it's a great idea to give them as gifts. I'll visit that website to look at that pens. I might try to make one myself. Since I have a new Nortel I think I could make much longer beads.

Keep updating your blog.
Happy bead making.
