What I did with the Beaders special

[beadweaver]

Hi, This is my first post , I hope the pictures show up. I wanted to show some things I made with the beaders special from PP.
I made a mixed up rope, which was my first try at knotting. I wear this alot.
I made the bracelet out of the lavender drops and the emerald earrings out of the drilled rounds.
I guess while I am posting I will show some bridal jewelry I made with the drilled rounds too.
Here is crossing my fingers the pictures show.
I have been lurking for a while now and really appreciate all I have learned here.

Hi Beadweaver!

Welcome to P-G! Great creations!! I love the fwp rope you did, it is my favorite of your pieces.

Very Cool!

Great stuff and great photographs, too! No novice stuff here.

Very nice! Your earrings are getting me in a St. Patrick's mood

Very cool! We should've done this with the loose stock a long time ago! I am so glad those pearls have found such great homes!

Welcome to the forum... and beautiful work. The bridal pieces are very nicely made.. and the mixed rope is the sort of piece I just love.. and the bracelet is beautiful..

Jeremy - isn't it amazing to see how these pearls have been used? I still think it was great of you to make these lots available.

I hope you'll have loose stock again soon, perhaps with a few loose baroque Tahitians too

Thank you everyone for your kind comments, and thank you Jeremy for offering the beaders special!

I just wanted to show my potpourri strand from an earlier odds and ends box at PP. I mixed my drop pearls in here too. Quite a few have said it is their fave, of my strands. This is 54"

beadweaver and Caitlin - I love both of your potpourri strands! I am a sucker for the huge strands and using all the different shapes and colors makes them stunning. I think I need to add one of these to my 'to do' list.

So far, this is all I have done with the Beaders special, I got the bag of drilled rounds! Finally sorted them out--and have a few put together for pendants--



Just one beautiful pearl-----! But I play with them every day----------!

Gorgeous work! Can't wait to see bridal jewelry!

I'm currently wearing the mixed strand I posted, made from the Beader's Special rounds-- I wear it all the time and adore it.

Jeremy-- the Beader's Special sale page was still up last time I checked. Can we still buy, or do you have other plans for anything that's left?

Beadweaver, Really like your designs!

Very nice work, Beadweaver.

Oh Oh Oh!! Beadweaver, Catlin, and Pattye these are SO beautiful. I was out of the country when that special was offered. With very poor internet access during that period, I had a few tantalizing glimpses--but the connection was never good enough (or long enough) to take advantage of the offer! Unfair again--can I be jealous?
