Bead Table Wednesday and Knotted Headpins
Add caption
Yes, it is Bead Table Wednesday! I am working on a focal for a piece of Vintage Lucite that will be a focal in a necklace.
Vintage Lucite Bead will become a focal
I am working on my pieces for Lori Anderson's Bead Soup Blog Hop and I am planning on using this pretty piece of vintage lucite that I got from my partner as a focal for the necklace. I needed a long headpin to go through it so that I can attach it to a chain. The headpin needed to be longer than anything I had on hand. I located this terrific tutorial and decided to make my own.
What a cool way to make headpins! Thanks for sharing the tutorial. I'll be checking back to see what colors you use with that lucite focal!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Kathy... these are perfect for someone like me who doesn't want to deal with fire LOL. Not to mention they look very elegant :)
