I'm not quite sure what to blog about but, I've been reading various kinds of blogs and since not much is happening in my personal life news worthy I will blog about work. I just fininshed my first double spiral holiday bacelet. Now that was a feat in itself. A short time ago (three years) I discovered that I really liked jewelry that was constructed from seed beads so I trecked to the nearest Walmart and purchased a few vial of the tiny beads. I was very eager to learn so I went on-line and found instructions and started construction of a bracelet using the peyote stitch. The bracelets came out looking ok but still didn't look like some I'd seen so I stopped creating them until I could find out what was wrong.
A time later I was selling my wire wrapped stones at a craft show and met a very nice lady that made beautiful seed bead bracelets. She gave me her trade secret and a few pointers and I felt very blessed to get to know her. This got me all fired up to start again using different brands of beads.
So here I am today, this is my first double spiral bracelet. Not a difficult bracelet to make if you don't count the times I stuck myself with the needle.
Lovely bracelet and a great beginning to your blog!
