Idea

This is a neck piece that I want to make using those little discs, I know that I might not have enough time to make it because, I don't want to make just one. So I will make to prototype and then pay someone to make it for me, I will have to make sure that everything works and falls in place before I can give it to someone to make that frames so that I can give it to someone else to bead it for me. These are drawings of how I think they should be joint together.

Small Bracelet

This is my latest jewellery piece and I like the colours that I used on it. A comment was made for me to use plate because the wire that I was using was very thin so I used thicker wire and smaller jumprings to link everything together.

As Amy I want to use these small beaded discs to create a bigger picture or a bigger jewellery piece.

Amy C. Clarke

I found Amy in a book called 500 Beaded Objects, I like going back to this book to see how crazy people are about beading. This picture is (10.2 x 14 cm) and yes its all beaded "I thought about the hope inspired by the light of a single candle in darkness, and how I make a wish everytime I blow out a candle."

Thought

I have been busy trying to make a beaded so that I could use them to create a range of contemporary beaded jewelery. I have found some people that have made them and have done a very good job at it and I have add one of their links on my blog.
I'm thinking of moving away from trying to make this big bead for now because its really not going anywhere and I think its slowing me down.

I used to hate or dislike beadwork that is flap or beadwork that is bigger then a miter wall painting because I thought it would take me forever to do something like that. I still love beads or beading, I love how one bead on its own can mean nothing but if put next to other (beaded) can create or be part of a bigger picture (work of art). I guess that's one of the reasons why I wanted to make my own beaded bead.

Earrings

Well they are finished and I can't really say that I'm impressed with what I see, I like the whole concept of using plate but a part of me feels like the pattern is almost fighting with the beads maybe keeping it simple is the way to go. Maybe I should make another pear that is more simple and maybe smaller, what do you think?

Blame the eye

Well I burnt my eye last week and it hasn't easy make jewellery that is neat. These earrings will have beads where the wholes are, I'm not sure how they will look but hopefully the look better then the wire frame earrings.

Plate earrings

It has been a long time since I last blogged and I found that a lot of ideas and next moves are lost by not blogging. I going to do it more often so as to keep track of what's going on.

When we spoke to the lectures, they made a comment that I'm using too little metal and that I should try using plate to bead on. I went and drew this earring and hopefully it will work out.
