More sari silk love here on the ol’ blog!

This is a project I did on PBS television’s Beads, Baubles and Jewels last December.  Time really does fly!  It is based off a project in my book, Necklaceology.Basically, you wrap big macrame beads with sari silk and then embellish them with stitchery and tiny seed beads.  You’ll need a tapestry needle to thread the silk ribbon through.  The needle will run through the center of the bead and around and round.  Put a little glue inside the bead to keep the ribbon from unraveling.You can use the tapestry needle for the leather too.  I’m using Beadalon’s Indian leather and spacer beads here.Here’s a link the the Beads, Baubles and Jewels page with the project, photos, and instructions.

If you’re curious about Necklaceology, may I invite you to take a peek here?

Let’s here it for the weekend already!!

Wishing you a good one!
