A good session

[norsegirl]

Last night's efforts (took me until now to charge the batteries and get the pics off the camera). The ones on the left are kinda yuck (still figuring out how to deal with the green, and the purple spots were just and experiment to see how the clear purple laid on the mauve, not well I think). The ones at either end aren't sensational either, but usable at least. The rest all turned out pretty well though. Even had decent enough control over the green to keep it from bleeding too much.

I think I'm about 2-3 beads away from the necklace I want now, at most. I've even got the stringing order figured out. I'll post it when it's all put together. Which better be by tomorrow in time for the event.





In other news tax season is over for me. All my work is done, except my own taxes that is, and I don't have to do all the documentation and working paper junk I do for work, so that should go easy. It'll be nice to have a life again, or rather for the weekend until school starts up again - sigh.

purple/mauve

is nice and subtle. would be interesting to see the mauve with purple diagonal stripes that match up with the diagonal indents (variation of your leftmost one)

i tend to like subtle and quiet though. :) maybe because there is too little in my life :)

what colours were common in period? i guess i should have a where in there too, but i really don;t know a lot about glass beads.
