Most Recent Beads & Jewelry

LOVE the colors in these beads!

MORE PHOTOS

These are beads drying. Yes, each bead is placed on a toothpick to dry!

Each bead is handcrafted and no two are exactly the same!

My Lastest Creations!

I continue to make beads and jewelry! Here are two of my recent additions. I keep looking at Etsy and E-Bay but have yet to make the move to selling (or trying to at least).

LOVE this purple necklace and earrings. May have to keep it for myself! I know I need to keep a certain percentage to promote my jewelry but I keep thinking won't it be great if I sold it!

The other necklace is from my Men's accessory line. Thought that sounded very official! I have a friend who frequently buys necklaces in tribute to his daughters. The first necklace he bought he wore 24/7 for 10 weeks and showered with it on daily!!!! I don't recommend that people do that but that certainly proves paper beads are water resistant.

I am addicted. I was in a "salvage freight" type store yesterday and bought 3 more rolls of wrapping paper plus numerous sheets of scrapbook paper. I spent just a little over $5 but the point is I have tons of paper I could be using. Guess I just will have to keep making paper beads and jewelry!

YEAH!!! Photos are getting better.... maybe a website is the next step!

PAPER BEAD CLASS

Here are some photos of the last Paper Bead class I taught. I have hand outs and charts - Yes my Marketing background has to make it an EVENT! We had 16 people at that class but are limiting the April 17 class at Beads & Crystals to only 8 people. I also have made a "poster" for the class.

Earrings & Bracelet

Here is my latest creation! This is the most beads per square inch I have ever designed. Not easy to do and my fingers are a little sore. My wraps look much better. Now my photo is another story..it actually is not the correct color - but I am gonna work on that next! The colors are pink, purple, orange and gold and VERY glossy!

Took a Basic Wiring class at Beads & Crystals this past Saturday. It was nice to get to know the place and people since I will be teaching a class there. Got lots of new ideas and have been working hard on incorporating what I learned!

Re-Art Blog Begins

This is it - the start of a blog about my company Michele's ReArt!

More importantly, I am teaching another PAPER BEAD class. YEAH!!! It is at Bead & Crystals on April 17 from 2-4 pm.

Also I have orders for 4 necklaces. OK so at this point friends and family are my biggest customers but I am earning money not just spending money!

I continue to make tons of beads and need to start producing jewelry from them.
