I saw a bracelet on line and wondered if I could figure out how to do it. I could! Yay me! I made this set to go with my favorite shirt that I wear all summer long (you all know you have one of those).

Question from a newbie. I have only used beading thread, never wire. Can you recommend what wire to use to give a little body to, say, earrings like this?

I love this as I have die eyes. What a cool way to make a bracelet for yourself.

My whole schedule is way off, I'm thinking today is Monday but nope. So I've been creating Halloween patterns for the sides of boxes, but i wanted them to be able to work on a daily basis too. I started with this froggie, he's so cute!! I had to bead him up since i can't visualize written measurements, and in doing so I decided I am going to make a series of them. He'll have different things depending the message, and i even started adding friends for him. But the first is Fred (Not sure about the names yet) Today he chose violence. Lol. Patty is Fred's new best friend. I also made this superduo herringbone, but the blue iris on the superduos is beautiful! I couldn't get a picture to really show that iris off

Omg, I was telling Rachelle that if I had known how long this was going to take, I might have had second thoughts! (Not really, but it did take a while to complete!) Over 5,000 beads. I counted. But, I am happy. Note, if you are thinking of making one of these, I added a strip of stiff Mylar in the inside to give it body.
