Post by: beads-on-toast on July 31, 2007, 09:40:11 PM
Right chaps, sorry this has taken so long!!

This is the third theme challenge on Frit happens and it is for one month only and it is

ORANGE (thanks Steph)

I chose this colour as it was the first colour i thought of associated with my holiday to Greece in 3 weeks!

You can make anythin that takes your fancy however the item must be primarily ORANGE!!!
A focal, a set a critter it is completely up to you.


Sound good?

So lets go!!!

The next colour challenge will be started in September

Hi

Here's my entry... they are meant to be carrots, (not strawberry's, thanks Andrew or peppers, thanks Lucy). Small carrots, perhaps I should have made them bigger, but not having a kiln I was worried about them braking, as it was I lost 3, 2 broke as i took them off the mandrels the 3rd had to smashed off. Enough waffling... used carrot red, striking orange and grass green.

Lovely beads everyone - the vet odds are good enough to eat!

Be gentle this is my beads first public appearance, the photo might be too big so I apologise for the size (in case), the photo might not appear (first time using photobucket) and if it does the quality is not too hot either and the beads..... well they are orangey!

Here's my entry!

Three different Effetre oranges, silver frit and clear encasing. Not too bad for day 3 of beadmaking!

Still on the mandrel, though... :'(

my new odd vetro - tangerine sparkle, although the sparkles seem to have packed up and gone on holiday!
I just love the colour though.
