I had some time over Christmas break to make some new necklaces.

Tila Beads

This bracelet is made with 2 hole Tila Beads (the ones that are clear in the picture).  I purchased some a year ago and recently found some fun patterns to use them with.

Ornaments

Monday night at my craft group, one of the quilters shared a new ornament pattern with us.  We each got one finished and I decided I needed to make some more.  I have completed these and am giving them as a Christmas gift to another crafter friend who loves buttons.

Crystals!

Here is one of the bracelets I made using a right-angle weave.  The top is made of 4 mm bicone crystals and the bottom is made with size 8 seed beads.  I chose a magnetic clasp for this bracelet.

Beaded Scarf Tubes

 This summer I began making beaded tubes that have a scarf slid through them.  There is an adapter on the end that allows the scarf to be pulled through to keep a bow in place without having to tie it.  The scarf can be worn as a bow, with the beaded part in front to look like a necklace and the ends draped forward or it can be worn in the hair as a head band with the scarf either trailing behind or in a bow on the top of your head.  Your creativity is the only limit to how to wear this enhanced scarf.
