I did give the 3 stone beads to my friend Julie for her shower - but I had made extras and that's what I've got listed here...I couldn't decide between giving lentils or grape-shaped beads, so I have a couple of sets to choose from...They are more expensive than my other beads due to the additional process these go through - and they are made using silver leaf so that adds to the cost...but they are one of a kind beads that I think are pretty..the first set is strung on a thin leather cord that's about 18" long, the lentils are on a leather piece thats about 8" for a bracelet...or do your own thing with them...and as always, have fun! (click the pics to see the beads against a fall leaf...very pretty!)
Cold...wet...rainy...perfect day to stay inside. Except I have a bridal shower to attend and have to get out in this evil weather and drive across town...rats...but when I get back, its 'all beads, all the time' this afternoon and evening. I made a few 'stone' beads yesterday for the shower - we are to bring 3 small stones to add to a bamboo vase that symbolizes strength and I don't know what else...anyway, I thought - 'why go find ugly rocks in the street when I can make beautiful stone beads?" So that's what I did...Still need to clean them, and i'll try to get a pic for ya even if its taken indoors.
The Carrie in Paris set has sold, and now I'm really sad again..it was my last little reminder from the show and its leaving the house..I've already boxed it up so I don't have to look at it longingly..Sure I can make a set for me - but this set was made before the show ended..its the memory of the whole thing...I'm sure its going to a great home, though...my customers are the BEST!
