WEAVE WITH A LITTLE TWIST I haven't posted for awhile and thought I'd pop in to say hi and show a picture of a bracelet I just made. I came across a great tutorial for a weaving a wire bracelet and here is the first one I made in copper using twisted, coiled wire and round wires.

All that Glitters... gif Found this neat little site that lets you make glitter.

Blue Blue My World is BLUE (SOLD) These two beads rolled together and I thought, oh yes, that will work. Titanium Parawire wraps the top glass bead and black annealed steel wire wraps the bottom one. Finished off with a black rubber cord.

Jewelry Junkies of the Fraser Valley 2013 Bead Challenge Today was the "Big Reveal" for the 2nd Annual Bead Challenge Everyone did a fabulous job. Everyone stepped up to the challenge to incorporate the Frozen Charlotte Dolls  (FCD) into their designs. Here are a few pics of some of the entries.   (Some entries had several pieces made from the beads in the kit) FIRST PLACE WINNER   I was surprised (but happy) to win 1st Place as the entries were all so fabulous. This piece is inspired by Diana Frey. I've been wanting to make it for a few years now and loved how I could bury the large FCD into the wire and beads. I created a few wire beads using annealed steel wire and love the effect. The two baby FCD's are caged and were rubbed with a light touch of blue & silver color. A faceted heart dangles from the bottom. SECOND PLACE WINNER "KAREN"   THIRD PLACE WINNER "LOIS" *******...
