beautiful bookmarks with beaded bead

 

Today I have a special post about bookmarks. As social media is growing, and everyone has a Kindle, so we read less paper books. But sometimes is great to take an old favorite book and read it again. 


Touch the paper sheets and feel the smell. Find favorite sentences and quotes, and mark these places with beautiful bookmarks.  


This time I get a custom order for the bookmarks with a beaded bead. As I like reading and beading, I made them more :) 


Beaded beads made of czech glass pearls and seed beads. The length of the bookmark is 4.5" (11.5 cm) 


How to use: simply slide the metal part of the bookmark inside the book and let the beads dangle outside. For example pretty one on a bookshelf:

paint by number kit "Flamingo" 3

 

Finally, the picture is ready. I've been painting this for 3 weeks and I'm very satisfied with the result. Do I want to paint some pictures more? Oh no, not soon yet :) Look at this animated progress: 


How it looks in the interior: 

 What I learned - the painting kit is a good stress reliever :)

paint by number kit "Flamingo" 2

The flamingo in progress. Last week and now one: 

I imagine how beautiful it will come out. The challenge is really hard for me to paint all these tiny areas. However, the picture is for a medium level. Paint a little more and I will get the ready picture :)

paint by number kit "Flamingo"

 

Really, I like to draw, but I'm not good enough. Someday I saw a great opportunity to make my own art - the kits Paint By Number. The kit contains all you need: canvas with numbers, paints, and brushes. It was hard to make a choice. Finally, I've bought a pink flamingo with a crown. The size is 40x50 cm (approximately 16"x20"). That's a pretty good challenge, look at these small areas: 

As the producer says, it may take about 2-4 weeks to paint such a picture. A nice start has done: 

Did you ever paint by the numbers? How it was?

Having a picnic during the summer months can be entertaining and a blast for the entire family. It helps the family to get together and eat some delicious food and play fun games. It doesn't take more than a picnic basket, a few food items and a good mood! Happy Sunday!

I'm bored of the snow. It is everywhere - around my house, in a garden, on the roads, on the fields, in a forest, behind a river.. Needs sunshine, warm days and flowers.

I love autumn, it's great time to philosophie, reading some great books while sitting in front of the fireplace, wrapped in blanket and drinking hot tea with bergamot taste. Waiting for quiet snowy time..
