This piece belongs to Jennifer.

Seattle -S$14

I always wanted to make y-necklaces, but never got around to actually sourcing for findings, beads, etc. So I guess you could say this one is sorta an experimental necklace for me. I added two flower pewter bead for details.

Clay Quilted Beads

Similar to the "hydrant" beads, but instead of adding bits of clay, I make patterns on them. Now they look like quilts.

Mmm… How will I use them?

My First "Hydrant" Beads

They kinda reminds me of the fire hydrant… Heehee. :-)

The clay before baking is slightly adhesive, so I stick bits of coloured clay on top and bake them together.
Look at how they turned out.

Not bad for a first attempt, huh? :-)))

Sweet Gwen Necklaces

My weekend project

Here are the products.
The lentils didn’t turn out very well.
Maybe I haven’t got the hang of it yet.
Think I will stick to rounds and ovals for the time being.
:-P

Fiona was here...

Saturday. Cloudy.

Nice day for a walk, Dad says.
Bloody hot. I complained...
(Heehee...)

Anyhow, we made our way down to Holland Village.
We haven’t been there are a long time.
Let’s see...



Beadshop! This shop came highly recommended by fellow local beaders.
Finally~~! I have been there!
Wahahaha!

I went there to look specifically for beadcaps.
Well, I couldn’t find what I wanted, but look what else I found!



The shop was not difficult to locate, it was situated behind Holland Village shopping centre.
There are many varieties of findings, some not common.
I especially like the presentation, most of the stuff are packed in nice little square transparent boxes. (I am thinking I could recycle them.)
However, the prices are a bit steep, but the quality and service made up for it.
