Happy What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday!<\/p>\n

\"2013-10-23-woyww-bead-cluster-earring\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Today’s desk shows me working on another project from\u00a0\u00a0Wire-Wrapped Stones Crystals and Clusters<\/a>, a Craftsy class I bought a while back.<\/p>\n

There’s the latest issue of Polymer Cafe. \u00a0I’m not really into Santa, and I think this one is especially creepy, but she does show a fantastic method for making polymer clay eyes that look like glass. \u00a0It’s on my list of things to try.<\/p>\n

Those flower dies having been hanging around for a while, I’m sure I’ll get to using them at some point.<\/p>\n

\"bead<\/a><\/p>\n

These are the earrings, all done.<\/p>\n

If you decide to take this class and make these earrings, here’s \u00a0a tip for you. \u00a0Each earring contains 63 small stones that are strung onto a wire before being wrapped on the hoop. \u00a0Aga (the instructor) suggests you lay out your two rows of stones on a bead mat so the pattern will be the same on both earrings.<\/p>\n

This is an excellent suggestion if you are NOT an uncoordinated person. \u00a0If you can be certain your fingers will NOT catch the bead mat (TWICE!) and send all your neatly arranged beads flying, then, by all means, do it this way.<\/p>\n

If, however, you’d like to avoid that sort of pain, aggravation (and near cussing) I’d suggest you do it a different way. \u00a0Instead, just string both your wires at the same time. \u00a0Have all your beads in a pile, pull out a few matching pairs at a time and string them so each wire has the same pattern.<\/p>\n

After finishing these though, I had to wonder, does it really matter if they match? \u00a0Maybe if you were doing fewer, larger beads, yes, but not with these teeny tiny ones.<\/p>\n

\"bead<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyhow, \u00a0they’re done and I LOVE the colors. \u00a0There’s only one more project in this class I need to do. \u00a0Then I guess I’ll just have to take another one. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Btw, Craftsy just let me know they are having a flash sale this Friday, October 25th, so if there was a class you were thinking about taking, that would be a good time to sign up.<\/p>\n

\"craftsy-free-classes-wigets\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Don’t forget that they always have lots of free classes as well. \u00a0I’ve taken several and enjoyed them all.<\/p>\n

So, that’s what’s on my desk this Wednesday. \u00a0Interested in what other creative people are up to? \u00a0Check out the link party over at Julia’s<\/a>. It’s always fun and inspiring.<\/p>\n

Happy creating!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
