Handmade Beaded Jewelry
Beaded Wire Crafts and a Lady Bug for you.
Beads and wire crafts is something that I am experimenting while I was away from my blog. I intended to create a brooch but the end result was a bit heavy. It became a good alternative as a paper weight. A great gift idea for a guy. Yes, at least there is something here for the guys too.
This is the Lady Bug created with wire and beads.
I used brass wires to create a frame and work beads over it.
I hardly write my blog these days. I will try for to write more often and if the words don’t come easily, I will post more pictures next time. Hope this will light up your day. Cheers.

And to a certain extent, one prudent way to protect ownership. However, as much as I wished to post updates on my hobby, I had to keep [...]
