I am pleased to present my new Flower Series Focal Beads.
I have had such fun designing and making these. Using the wonderful Donna Kato's Composition Technique I have developed this entirely new series of beads.
Each bead is hand shaped with a variety of skinner-blend backgrounds and then covered on all sides with tendrils, leaves and blossoms. Each one is completely individual and no two are alike.
I have not made a series of beads before and am very excited by them. The ideas for more series are swimming around in my head, and the next series will be fish!
I have a few more colour-ways for the flower beads still to create and I hope that when they are all ready they will be well received at my weekly craft fair at Cirencester. I am still undecided as to whether to put them up for sale in my Etsy Shop or not. I am being asked more and more at Cirencester if I will make some beads for sale and decided that now was the time to do so. Beading and Jewellery making has become increasingly popular here in the UK over the past two years, and unusual handmade beads are always in demand. I would love my beads to become part of someone's design, or maybe to inspire a design because of the theme of my bead - that would be fantastic.
I hope you like them as much as I do.

They are absolutely smashing!!
I'm not good at envisioning ways to use certain beads, but I can imagine treasuring those on their own merit.
Keep the ideas swimming!
