Thank you

Green just doesn't do it for me, but these look better etched!

I'm liking this colour a bit more now that I have seen the lovely beads on this thread! It does look especially nice when etched.

I made an Autumn Leaves lentil bead yesterday, I rarely make focal beads but was quite pleased with this one. My rod is the 214. Sorry if pics are a bit large.

Also used it as dots on Christmas tree decorations, I like the way it gives a small central dot too.

Love that Christmas Tree decoration - you might just have given me a wee idea with that (don't worry, not for selling!)

Very pretty Christmas dec!

Here are my 214 beadies....

Quite like this colour etched.

Lovely beads everyone, the Nile green looks great etched.

Here are mine... I was clearly feeling in a dotty mood! Not sure about the one on the left, the other two are not too bad I think.

Vicky - I like the one on the left - the others look a bit busy to me!

Kaylee · September 29, 2013, 08:43:18 AM

Thanks Jane

hmmm you might have a point there - I think the beads are reflecting life at the moment, it's been a manic few weeks!

Jane C ♫ · September 29, 2013, 08:52:01 AM

Kaylee - hope it's been busy in a good way! They're great dots but I think I have a hankering for the simple life!

Kaylee · September 29, 2013, 09:00:32 AM

We don't seem to have stopped for about 3 weeks, some good, some not so good.

Actually you've made me think - I hadn't noticed before but recent beads really have been a reflection of the busy-ness of life at the moment - I reckon it's a sign I need to work on calming things down a bit

A simple life sounds fab

Just some simple lentil swirls from me.

Playing with a new press. Seems much deeper than the one I was borrowing.
