This is harder than I thought!

I'm trying to recreate a beautiful pair of earrings I saw. It's become quite the challenge!

It looked simple enough- knotted thread with a bead at the top of each peak- wrapping around the length of the hoop (like a stegosaurus).

These are peaks #'s 2 & 3 (I undid the first attempt). It's time consuming, but I'll keep at it.

Wish me luck!

Embossing Powder is addicting!

I made these beads out of paper, etc. What glossies them is sprinkling embossing powder over them and then melting it. Repeat this process adding several layers and mix-media materials. "The possibilities are endless!"
