Triangle

Triangle Pendant in peyote stitch with Miyuki DBs. It is my first experience with geometric forms and I loved it. Now I can understand why so many beader work on geometric forms.
For the first time I take the help from Diana Averdiek's book "Edle Schmuckstücke".

Black Classic

Lately I received a package from an very good friend which contains alot of nice stuff to use for my jewelrymaking. I'm so happy she inserted this wonderful linked chain I used here with the Speed-Beads. The Beads are made after a Tutorial from Martina Schweighart and I beaded them with facetted glas-beads in black-dorado and black combined with silver rocailles. Classy and fashionable at the same time.

Birthday-Balls


At the internet I found this nice tutorial for Speed-Beads from Martina Schweighart and I can say... I love it!
I made these 3 short necklaces as birthday gifts. Each one with a special color combination to achieve the personality of the Lady who will receive her Speed-Bead.
The two green-pink ones are for the Twins of my friend. The two sisters are twins, but completely different and so I made one bead in soft colors for the blond haired Lady and the more bold colored bead for the red haired sister. Even the beads match well together, the difference shows also the difference between the sisters. Hope they will love it.
The turquoise ball is for a nordic blond haired Lady and are her favorite colors. So I hope I'm right here too.

"Petite Four"






































Each element of this delicate neckpiece looks a littel bit like a "Petite Four" to my eyes. Yummy! Made after "Das Perlenkochbuch" using Pearlimitates, DB-beads and Toho seeds.
