VF's Beads & Baubles Madness

Yes, one craze led to another. From World Cup fanatic, I've progressed to bead junkie. I find myself twisting wire threads and weaving beads with nylon threads till wee hours almost everyday. My eyes! I'm still learning (Bless the Internet!) and here are some of the stuff I've made over the week.

This is a birthday present for my buddy, Reena. Happy 23rd Birthday, girl! I made this twice because I used the wrong type of thread the first round and everything startd to curl up but I'm quite pleased with the result. It's not perfect, but I think it's a great first attempt!

I made this today (yes, I'm working on a Saturday... zzz) at work. I absolutely like the geometric shape but I think I might have messed up the bead count. It doesn't look proportionate. It looks nice on my finger though.

I weaved this two days back. It was too big for my finger! Might just give it to my mum for her scarf or... napkin holder??

Here are some random earrings I made awhile back.

Okay, back to work. Baybeats today, anyone?
