Merry Christmas

Another in the Circle and Line series all done up for the holiday.

I started with the red beadwork on the right side. By the time I got to the left, horizontal rows, I finally had the knack of getting the beads to line up perfectly flat.

December BJP 2010

The final two projects for Bead Journal Project 2010. For this stone page (no. 8), I've added a bit of macrame. Scroll down and check it out ---- this macrame is done with sewing thread.

Behind the center opening of the stone donut I placed a piece of copper colored paper.

The 12th spiral done up for the holiday.

November Spiral

For November, I've used the rich gold of the season. The central core beads are triangles with hex cut gold for the outer bead.

These hex beads are the tiniest little things.

My previous blog post is the 11th beaded page of the year.

Circle and Line Series

Here is another in the Circle/Line Series.

Spirals and Stone Page No. 7

10/10/10 - great date!

Here is August - I was still thinking of ocean colors.

September - inspiration was the leaves turning yellow.

October - now the leaves are oranges, red and browns.

Stone Page No. 7 - the featured "stones" are two pieces of beach glass - most probably beer bottle glass. For this piece I wired the glass in place with 24 ga. brass wire.

Finished No. 6

Stone Page No. 6 is finally finished and mounted.

Having spent the summer in New England (returning south last weekend), it was good to see the Stone Page series again and I was pleased to still feel good about it.

This is the first in what has become the Stone Page series.
