Festoons!

[norsegirl]

One weekend to a complete festoon. True, it's a short one, but I also dinked around with a few beads I chose not to use. Here's a sample of the beads I made today:


I made two of each of the beads shown, these were the best ones.

And the whole festoon.

Finally, no more ugly commercial beads for me. Not even any beads made by other artists. Just mine. Feels good.

Now, off to write all those thank you notes. Maybe dye my hair first... so procrastinating.

they all look absolutely awesome, eve!

i've been following your progress on these since the beginning, and it looks like you've done some really amazing stuff, even with the experiments that *you* didn't like :)

so, when do you start taking commissions, and have you given any thought yet to price per bead type yet? :-D

For you, I'd be far more interested in an unconventional type of payment. I'm thinking dinner with appropriately-paired wine either at your place or at Pennsic will get you a string.

Oh, and thanks for the compliments :)
