Canadian Beaders

I saw that you are so fortunate to live in such a lovely place!!

Well I don't do them I make jewellery, but I do know there are lots of patterns on the internet!! Just try a couple searches or again try the Crafter Comminty in the beading forum, as I'm sure there are some instructions posted in there!!

Hi

What technique do you use to do the beaded wall hangings? Where do you get the patterns from? I live in Barbados.

Welcome Baje!!
I don't do that type of beading but I there are lots of projects posted in the beading section on the Crafters Community!! Try a search, I'm sure some will come up for you!!

Hi

I live in Barbados and I am interested in beading for home decor. I am fascinated by the pictures I see here. Does anyone do safety pin Beading?

Baje

It seems to be very slow here right now, so I guess everyone is busy making stuff for thier shows or like you putting fruit and veggies down!!!
I have just put down corn so far, may wait for the spies(apples) before putting any apples down!! Mom wants to do some too!!!

Either everyone is working like crazy on something, Patricia, or they are all busy with other things right now. As for me, I have had steady company since the beginning of August so there hasn't been much "me" time yet! I am taking advantage of the extra hands though and have everyone sitting at the kitchen table peeling 40 pounds of apples for pies and apple crisps to freeze for the winter! Also had visiting BIL put up siding on the storage shed so can't really complain too much! Will be looking for unique bracelet patterns at the beginning of Oct. once everyone is gone.

Just wondering what everyone is working on these day!!
I have been working on earrings and some fashion jewellery!! I had a bunch of wire crocheted bracelets done so I added the beads this past weekend!! I love these!! Also did some fashion earrings!! The other earrings I call fun festive holiday earrings and they are mini tree ornaments and figural stuff the does up fast and sells really well!! They are the draw to my table as I only charge $3 each or 2/$5!! I sell a load of these things!!! I also make a load of them!!LOL

Just picked up my mail and I had a parcel!!! It was 4 beading books I had ordered!!LOL
