Cubic RAW necklace

This has been one of my favorite projects to make. Once you get the hang of the weaving technique, it just happens naturally

For this beautiful black and necklace I used Tubular Right angle weave or cubic RAW with size 8 seed beads and ending with size 10 black seed beads

Shopping bag Pendant

This is from one of so many websites which keep sending you email ever so often with craft ideas. This is a pendant using plastic shopping bags. I used two shopping bags, one in yellow and one in brown.

Using a leaf template cut many leaves out of the bags and burn them using a grill lighter and put a hole in it and hang it from a chain. Mine is golden colored Aluminium chain

Even Count Tubular Peyote

I have had a necklace for ages and I love it, love it, love it. And I , for long, wondered what stitch was used to make it. And finally I figured it out and made a necklace by myself using the "Even Count Tubular Peyote Stitch" . It is a bit time consuming but the results are AAAmazing

I used seed beads in shiny blue, green, turquoise and gold. And I love it
