back to peyote

Here are some of the peyote projects I've been doing these past days. The first two pictures below are made of triangular glass beads made by Miyuki of Japan. I love using their product for their consistency in shapes and size.



The bracelet below is made with square or cube glass beads. I used beading elastic to put the beads together in a peyote stitch. The cuff is stetchy, comfy and always cool to your wrist.
Here's a mix of colors for the coming fall. I know it's still too early to think about fall but I can't help but think about it when I was making this bracelet.

spring greenery

Here's my weekend project - a band made of miyuki tri glass beads of springy green colors. The with of the is a little bit more than an inch.

burst #3

Here's another burst I made for myself. Sometimes, it's nice to make something and wear it! I had some accolades on this. The pictures I posted don't do any justice on how pretty this piece actually looks like! I use swarovski rivoli for the center piece, miyuki glass beads of different sizes, and some gf charlottes.

Bead Crochet Bracelet

I am bidding this pretty bracelet goodbye. It's always nice to know that what I took time creating is also enjoyed by another person. This time, it's Barb who "hearts" my creation. Thank you, Barb for stimulating the economy. *wink

This bracelet is made using 11/0s miyuki glass beads (of black diamond, pink and clear colors) and some clear fringe beads also from miyuki. I strung them using guttermann top stitching/button thread then crocheted with love and care. The result is amazing! I have to admit that this piece is my most popular in 2008. Several custom made orders we made for this specific color combinations.

Please don't take a shower with this bracelet or don't wet it since it will sag. The weight of the beads on cotton thread does the trick. Again, I guarantee your satisfaction as long as I know you took proper care of the piece.

Stay Happy!

"Villa Novan" Bracelet

Sharon bought this bracelet last xmas for her future daughter-in-law. I call it villa novan bracelet since its color represents our school color! What a spirit! I love making this bracelet. I think the leaf toggle made the whole bracelet with a grapevine feel. She said that her ds' girlfriend like it a lot. :)

This is another version of the same bracelet pictured above. I made several of these for my other colleagues and dfs. I thank them all for making my little business going.
tfr!

burst #2

These bursts can be used as pendant or earrings or anything you want them to be! They made with vintage Swarovski Rivolis, 11/0s miyukis, 4 and 8mm Swarovski bicones stitched together using a fireline thread.

tfr!
