I'm holding off on any bead embroidery projects until I get my order of Nicole's BeadBacking. From what I hear, its some pretty fantastic stuff. So in the meantime, I was scrounging around the studio and came across 2 kits gathering dust.
The first one is a simple bracelet kit from Mzuribeads featuring those awesome handmade paper beads. I'm not a 'stringer' kind of girl, so I tried to embelish the beads.
Neither attempt was any good, and I was getting annoyed. Simple stringing it is then.
Next I came across another one of those fan-tab-u-lous Toho Ring Kits that I got at Artbeads.com. I have said it before and I will say it again: I LOVE these kits! So organized, clear illustrations, gorgeous beads and takes just a bit over an hour to put together.
Just look at the focal bead! Just beauty-full.
