What to do with all these beads????
in Crafts
My nana was a quilter and used seed and bugle beads to decorate many of her applique designs. Since I inhertied all of her craft supplies, I now have about a million seed and bugle beads.
I don't use beads all that much - only here and there, but I am looking for some ideas to use them for. Does anyone have any good suggestions other than for accenting appliques? I don't see myself making jewelry out of them.
TIA!
Re: What to do with all these beads????
I bought a Christmas decoration from pier one that was sort of a bouquet of wire stems that were bugle beads and sequins alternating on lengths of floral wire wrapped together with floral tape. They kind of remind me of fireworks. We made some small 'bursts' out of the colors of our decor.The one we bought was done in red and green.
Sort of like this, but with sequins between each bead and the one we bought was more like a bouquet, not a napkin ring.
