K.Z. came over for some beading the other night, and I made my very first
book thong! I can't help but find the name of these things funny...
I also know that with the way I treat my books, it would likely fall apart in no time. As much as I need more book marks, I don't think anything beaded is such a good idea. I made a fabric book protector out of an old pant leg a while back, but even with that, I don't think it would stand a chance.
On an unrelated topic, I am finally re-instating the monthly
stitch 'n' bitch! As it stands, they will be the last Wednesday of every month. If anyone reading this wants to join and hasn't been invited, just leave me a message!
Now, I don't do a whole lot of beading, but when I stumbled across this tutorial for how to make beaded earrings using the coraling technique, I had to try it. The finished product looks so organic and elegant. I don't think they turned out half bad for a first try!
I am so lucky to live right around the corner from Country Beads...
