On Saturday we threaded many, many beads through wire and wondered if we would make anything by the end of the workshop. As with much creating and making we were testing out the ability of waiting in order to achieve...delayed gratification...
Everything matched, even nail varnish, I think this was down to the overall bias on the colour red today
And here is a picture demo of how the whole threading the bead thing worked. The beads are sort of like knitting stitches, you have to make sure to count your rows so that you get the right shape. Much scolding by me if you add an extra bead where there wasn't supposed to be one! Ah, but sure that's what I'm there for...
So increase and decrease depending on the shape you are after.
You end up with a whole heap of petals ready to be all rolled into a flower formation.
And hey presto, there it is, all rolled up with green florist tape, you can't see the tape in this picture though.
