Deuxième décision pour 2018, reprendre les perles, la laine, le tissus, refaire des bijoux ou d’autres choses plus régulièrement. En tout cas essayer.
Avec mon cours de reliure, je me suis rappelée le plaisir d’utiliser ses mains, de découvrir des techniques, alors c’est parti pour un trimestre, après on verra.
Donc pour commencer, je reprends le défi de Art Bead Scene Studio.

Voilà un bracelet compliqué à prendre en photo donc en voici d’autres.
Freeform peyote is difficult to photograph so here are a few more views.
Nice use of the colors in the inspiration textile design in your brooch–very pretty!

How appropriate… almost as if Nancy's bead had been made just for this purpose, Karin! It is fun to see a brooch, which we don't get very often at the challenge, and this one is very attractive 🙂

I love reading your blog Karin, although my phone usually doesn't allow me to comment! I always try and read the French first to brush up on my very basic skills – I really enjoy that aspect especially 🙂 As always, this is a beautiful piece! You make real magic with art beads!

This bracelet is beautiful! I saw it elsewhere and loved it. Now that I see it is for ABS, the colors are perfect and the freeform lines really remind me of the flowing lines in the inspiration artwork.

The focal seems perfect for the inspiration and the flow of the freeform peyote gives an ethereal feel to the bracelet!
