folded leaf bead earrings

 

These folded leaf earrings are made in the peyote stitch technique. The colors are matte bronze and gold. 

Lightweight and the length is just 2" (5 cm). 

Gold plated sterling silver lever back earwires, excellence for sensitive ears. And here is one picture more: 

 

miyuki delica seed beads

 

What is better than Delica? More Delica! 😁

And this is Nymo thread collection. For my projects, I like to use thread the same color as seed beads. 

Check my Etsy shop, I recently added new beading patterns there: Lariata.etsy.com 

 

peyote stitch alphabet letters A-Z pattern

 

These personalized bracelets I made for nieces. Used Nymo thread and size 11 Toho beads. The girls liked their gifts.  

... and put the bracelets on hands.

I designed a new peyote stitch pattern of letters from A - Z and tested it. Here is another bracelet in progress: 

Used size 11 Delica beads. I prefer Delica beads because all beads are in one size and perfectly fit each other. 

The alphabet letters from A - Z pattern is available in my Etsy shop: Lariata.etsy.com. It is easy to create personalized bracelets. Just arrange the letters in this pattern to create the word or phrase of your choice. 

The PDF file includes all letters from A - Z, a large numbered color graph of pattern, and blank peyote stitch graph pages for arranging letters for your customized project. There are both, even-count and odd-count options.

easy video maker

 

I'm playing with a video maker Animoto. That's a really useful video creation service and easy to create your short videos from any photos and videos. Just recommend :)

 

silver sprinkles

I'm trying to bead the new pattern. I like how silver beads sparkle on a black background. I am sure that the bracelet will fit any outfit and of course the classic black dress. The pattern is available in my Etsy shop Lariata.etsy.com.

  

cat is assistant

My sister is on the vacation with her family. So we have got a little cat for two weeks. He likes to be my assistant - he is sitting behind notebook and checking, what I am doing.

our workspace

The journals packaging. These two fabric journals are ready to leave us and go to their new home. I always use craft paperbags (not shown on the picture), tie with string and then put a journal into bubble envelope. Also I add a pretty bookmark.

Once a week I keep a journal about all coming and sent orders. On the picture there are more journals, only one of them is mine :)

how we make journals

- This journal will be so pretty, I think that is great for a little princess.
- Yes, it will be pretty and girly.
- So what kind of the paper we will use?
- Hmm, I think that this white squared paper.
- I'm not sure, I think that princess wants drawing in the journal, so we fill the journal with the white blank paper.
- May be the lined paper is better? What if princess wants not only draw, but try to write too?
- Hmm, you're right..

The journal is filled with lined paper, icluded some pages of pink color paper and white blank paper.

My Workspace: Circles

This beautiful fabric I have bought in Spain. I'm in love with these cute circles. I think it will be a summer dress with short sleeves. May be I need a new accessory also. May be a beadwoven bracelet? So I painted a pattern in beading programm and get started with the new piece.

Using Toho seed beads size 11/o and Nymo thread. Clasp will be toggle bar with a loop or button. I don't know yet.
