Paisley Doodles - Brooches
I managed to get, snatch even wrench some time to myself be it ever so brief, as my life at the moment is very much dictated by housework and the whims of a 6 and a half month old person, and do some bead weaving experimentation.
At the moment my work is noticeably evolving from the Herringbone stitch cuffs; earlier there were the pendants… and now thinner pieces with more of a curve in them. I messed around with looping them back on themselves and a pleasing Paisley motif just hopped out at me. Initially I thought, Pendant. But given the non selling state of the other pendants and further rumblings along the lines of brooches from various sources I decided to give it a whirl and attach brooch backs.
I am glad I tried it out as it seems to look quite well.
Here is the first one, all listed on Etsy, and there two more waiting for me to get up the gumption to photograph them…
