Fiona's Bead Bar

This weblog serves as a showcase for my bead projects. They started mostly as gifts for my friends. I normally do only one-time pieces, so they are kinda "exclusive", if you know what I mean. :) Do check back often for updates!


If you see anything you like, feel free to email me, and we will work something out.

A 30-something madly in love with handicrafts. I scrapbook, make wearable jewellery and crochet, among other things. My greatest dream right now is to have a car of my own.

Gwen


Description: Pendant = Swarovski light cream rose pearls 6mm + blue sponge coral round 6mm on a chain with a split ring, overall length = 5cm. Necklace = Black polyester rope with extender chain, lobster clasp, overall length = 45cm.

I made this necklace with Gwen in mind. She loves blue and coral is supposed to aid in childbirth and wards off bad thoughts from others and promotes general well-being. Not so sure about blue sponge coral, but it is a lovely piece, agree??

Elegant pearl necklace


Description: Swarovski light cream rose pearls 6mm + Czech glass round faceted 6mm separated by seed beads, lobster clasp with extender chain, overall length = 40cm.

I gave this necklace to a cute auntie who gave me an Ang Bao during Chinese New Year. She was a promotor for a certain milk product, and she has since left her job.

Oriental Bookmarks


Description: Bookmark with enamel and glass bead in matching colour.

I gave the red one away to a very good friend, who dreams of doing nothing but reading novels in a open-air cafe!

Rainbow saturn pendant


Description: Saturn beads in assorted colours, 6 pcs + Indian glass beads in assorted colours, 6 pcs, on a chain with split ring, overall length = 5cm.

This pendant is the result of me putting together beads of the same kind, but of different colours. I think it looks best with a white blouse and jeans.

Pearl and glass leaves pendant

One of my colleagues loves the piece. ;-)

Chinese charm bracelet


Description: Chinese enamel assorted beads + chain (17cm) + plain toggle clasp

I tot I'd post some of my home-made jewellery online.
This piece actually caught the eye of a certain Ikea cashier.
She was excited and kept asking me where I got it.
When told I made it myself, she immediately asked if I had a shop!
Me? A shop? Mmmm....
*Brain working overtime, but still could not get the maths right.
