Finally have my primary items done for the Houston Handweaver’s Artisan Market. This year my submissions will be bracelets and tapestry cards.

I have not done any bead weaving in a long time but once I got started I couldn’t seem to stop. The pictures above are netted bangles made of Swarovski crystal pearls and Japanese seed beads.

The netted bracelets pictured above are made of Czech AB cut glass (the pictures do not catch the sparkle of those beads) and Japanese seed beads.

Last, but not least, is another felt cuff. After I wet felted the cuff, I thought I would bead it as I did the other. Then I noticed my stash of felt balls and decided this cuff should be the whimsical piece. It ended up being very funky and very fun.
Now I need to assemble my tapestry cards using the weavings I finished a couple of months ago and I’ll be done. Then it’s on to the next show.
Beautiful pieces. I’m sure they’ll sell fast at the CHH Artisan Market.

Thank you. Hope you’re right. This is a real departure for me.

Those are gorgeous beaded pieces but I am partial to your whimsical felt cuff. I call it a happy piece, as it would make me smile to look at it on my wrist.
