Using Japanese and Czech glass seed beads and recently antique cooper bronze and brass rondelle crimp beads. I think i have a unique product. I use size 10/0 to 15/0 beads. A necklace may have as few as 2000 beads to 3500 beads depending on the size used and the finished length. The beading technique I mainly use is called tubular ndebele or herringbone. I have also been playing around with tubular peyote which gives a different effect. A necklace may take 7-25 hours or more to complete.

This is a variation on the diamond back pattern I did earlier. Has worked out into a nice piece. More 11/0 Czech seed beads in Jet Matte Black, Rootbeer and Light Topaz. Will attempt another with a similar style soon but incorporate a Dark Topaz which is a dark brown.

Middle Eastern style Arrives
Produced this pattern. Used Czech seed beads mainly frosted yellow , with a matte finished ruby red and rootbeer a silver lined bead for some glitz.
The colours remind me of the middle eastern costumes worn. Imagine a bra in that oo-la-la haha.

4 coloured offering
Well I finally picked up the needle again and this is what I created. It consists of Czech seeds beads size 11/0. There is 4 colours those being red, purple, maroon and blue. The blue was a string and had a vast difference in shades. I bought the string from Gypsy Beads in Angove St North Perth which has closed down now.

Inspired from an email
Last year my good friend Mary in the USA sent me an email. It was of a diamond back python a guy had killed after it attacked him. I loved the pattern on the snake so much I made a necklace with a similar pattern. So happy with the result.
On a personal note I want to congratulate Mary and Reuben on their marriage on Valentines Day 2011. I can only wish they don't wear out to many mattresses.
