More sari silk love here on the ol’ blog!
This is a project I did on PBS television’s Beads, Baubles and Jewels last December. Time really does fly! It is based off a project in my book, Necklaceology.
Basically, you wrap big macrame beads with sari silk and then embellish them with stitchery and tiny seed beads. You’ll need a tapestry needle to thread the silk ribbon through. The needle will run through the center of the bead and around and round. Put a little glue inside the bead to keep the ribbon from unraveling.
You can use the tapestry needle for the leather too. I’m using Beadalon’s Indian leather and spacer beads here.
Here’s a link the the Beads, Baubles and Jewels page with the project, photos, and instructions.
If you’re curious about Necklaceology, may I invite you to take a peek here?
Let’s here it for the weekend already!!
Wishing you a good one!
