Still more


Gotta love the metal beads, even though the plating sucks. If your project won't be in contact with the skin that much, they are perfect with RAW!
I actually used mononfilament fishing line with these. I know, I know, but it tolerated the pulling tight with the sharp edges of the metal beads and the 2.5mm bicones.

Jaycee's Silvermoon pattern..


I admit it...I can't leave patterns alone! So, beat me, will ya? But with pearls, or something soft like that...
Her original is a lovely pattern, fast and easy, and she offered it free at her site if you email her.. http://jayceepatterns.blogspot.com/
I did mine in copper metal beads, because I LIKE copper. In all its colors; bright, tarnished, liver-of-sulphured...but after doing hers, I had to see what would happen if I ignored Jaycee's advice and pulled my thread nice and tight ( like I usually bead), then kept adding beads in the center!
Voila! a bumpy version.
Hope you are not too offended, Jaycee...I just CAN'T help myself....and there is no 12 step program, I checked!! LOL!
Happy Beading, everyone!
