Hiidet

I have been studying two colours with beads this month. Although some kind of sampler necklace will eventually come out of most of the beads I made this month I wanted to make something simple that I actually will wear.

Lessons learned this month:

- The simpler the bead, the more it needs finishing for the necklaces. Some of the sketchbook quality unfinished beads still were the best discoveries this month.

- There are still tons of ideas untried and the bowl of sketchbook beads has about months worth more designs.

- Colour matters. With black and white (or ecru and black in my case) the beads look very different than they would with either harmonious colour palette or with compliment colours.

- Thanks for the miracle of WP scheduled publishing this task was less tiresome than I thought it would be. How ever I still need to organize this thing bit better.

- The process seems to be worth it. Out of 31 published beads two were complately new discoveries to me and the ideas keep flowing in the head.

- No more two colour beads for me for a while, thank you!
