This is my second attempt at beading tried ages ago but without much success. Thanks to the link Jenny put up I have managed to make a few lilttle daisy chain bracelets without getting in to too many knots. :D

Not a good pic the scanner has taken a lot of the colour away.

Hi Willow

Looks like you have mastered it now :thumbup; your bracelets looks great, they would make great Christma gifts :thumbup;

I wouldnt know where to start with beading, its something that I have always admired but never tried, not got the hands or eyes for it Im afraid :blink:

Looking forward to seeing what you do next :thumbup; Matching earings/necklace?

Excellent bracelets, Eileen :thumbup; Unfirtunarely, scanners often tend to bleed out colours :( You can, using something like IrfanView, often restore the colour, but it can be tricky at times :blink:

:ta: Thank you Sally, Steve and Jenny. :D Not sure what I am going to be doing next, I need to learn a few more beading stitches first :unsure: I have just cleaned my beading loom which has been sitting around doing nothing so might have another go at that. :wave:

These are gorgeous! I have tried, and failed, to make beaded things, my inspiration and imagination get completely lost as soon as I think beading :(
