Fun with Russian Spiral

The Russian Spiral stitch was the first beadweaving class that I took and I've been addicted ever since.  There are so many different materials and designs that can be created with this one pattern.

A few examples:

This is a Chakra bracelet using the 7 colors of the chakra system

A Russian Spiral using 3mm Swarovski crystals and size 15 seed beads

Russian Spiral with Hex beads and size 11 seed beads

Variation on the Russian Spiral

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fun with Color

I love wearing colors, beading with colors and discovering new color combinations.  I also have wonderful, colorful friends!!!

This is a custom design for one of my friends who exudes fun, laughter and enjoying all that life has to offer.

 My daughter has always been a pink girl and even as a young adult, she has found a way to make pink classy.  I made this bracelet to match a dress that I bought her for her birthday.

And if color doesn't excite you, materials may be the secret.  Daggers intrigued me and I love the way this came out.

   

                                It's all about having fun!
