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.

Assorted clay earrings 01


I am crazy about polymer clay!
I like to use Sculpey3 because... They are easier to get! (I got them from Artfriend and Creative Hands, and they come in these 10pc packs! Sweet~!)

Bali rose


Made specially for a good friend.

The story begin when Supeng visited Thailand and bought beads and findings, including this bali silver rose. I have been milking my brain juice on what to do with it. This is the final result...

Description = The centrepiece is made up of two components: a bali silver rose and a heart-shaped pendant made out of coconut husk and polished. This way the rose appeared to be resting on the husk and not hanging downwards.
The necklace is made up of faux plastic pearls and a couple of flower-shaped beadcaps framed plastic beads. I do not want to add anymore weight on the neck.
Length = 16 inches.

I hope she liked it.

Blue fountain and Tutu


Left: Blue fountain.
The flower-shaped bead reminds me of a water fountain, sprouting pearls.

Right: Tutu.
Ballet, anyone?

Whimsical earrings 04


Cute, cute!

Whimsical earrings 03


They are kinda hard to resist, eh?

I have grown lazier, it is so much easier to make earrings than necklaces or bracelets.

Whimsical earrings 02


"Artbeads" earrings. Comes in 4 colours, pink, yellow, green and blue.

Whimsical earrings 01


As I was digging through my slash, I came across some "artbeads". They are made of plastic, so they are quite light. Most suitable for earrings, I'd say. :)

Miss Piggy


Pink reminds me of cute little pigs...
And Miss Piggy of the Muppets fame is the most famously "vain", in my opinion anyway. Hence I named this piece "Miss Piggy". Wahahaha~!

Bright pink swirls clay beads with dull pinky round cloisonne beads. Comes with matching earrings.

Green swirls necklace set


Bright green swirls clay beads add an interesting contrast to the piece. Faux pearls and black seed beads.

Comes with matching earrings. Notice the beadcaps...

Blue Swirls Necklace Set


Blue swirls clay beads and faux pearls. This piece went to an overseas friend. And she love it~! Phew!

Comes with matching earrings.
