Christmas decorations
I woke up this morning from a dream where I was beading little stars out of beads and sequins. While I was brushing my teeth I thought ‘that could work!’. Then while I was getting dressed I realised it wouldn’t as it wouldn’t be stiff enough. But by the time I’d got to Patchings and my beads it had occured to me that if I used bugles it would work. So I started by making this silver star.
I was quite pleased with this, so I carried on playing and made these Christmas trees.
And moved onto these versions using 3mm bugles and smaller sequins for earrings.
I know it’s a bit early yet, but it’s only a month to the Christmas Market. I’m quite pleased with these (the earrings in particular are much nicer than they look in the photo – seasonal but not over the top), especially as they were designed in a dream!
