Turquoise Bracelet




Recently I made several bead crochet bracelets that I will donate to my son's school fundraising auction.







Bead crochet is one of the jewelry making technique that has several steps to creating a piece of rope jewelry. First of all, stringing beads on thread in a correct sequence depends on the pattern. One mistake here will destroy the pattern. By the way, this is the hardest part for me. Then to crochet each of these beads into a beautiful rope. Finally, finishing off with cones, findings, and accent beads to complete a beautiful bracelet.

Black Beauty



Black beads with silver metallic thread met In this 3D tatted necklace and earrings set.





Red Berries



I used light gold metallic thread and several different sizes of glass beads in this 3D tatted set.




Several years ago, I bought "Beads and Tatting - Ankars Technique" book which has different technics on how to use beads while tatting. Afterwards, I have been working on 3D tatting. I made several three- dimensional lace tatting necklaces and earrings and I also have pictures of the most recent ones.
