These are the two jewelry projects for my classes in December…

G.o.r.g.e.o.u.s!!!

This is a fun project using a new product out there that has a wire already threaded onto ribbon for ease of beading.

Very snappy idea!  🙂

This is a very elegant piece…one continuous strand of about a million tiny seed beads…ya, I do mean a million!!!  😉

But, no worries!

This little number gets to make use of another wonderful product out there…

Spin N Bead Jr!  This was my first time using this little gadget.  The top wooden bowl spins on it’s base.  You hold this hooked bead needle, threaded with your bead string, into the

bowl while you are spinning it and the beads thread themselves onto the needle!  Pretty neat, huh?…Well, the concept is cool, it just wasn’t as easy as that to work…but definitely easier than threading all those tiny beads on by hand!  My dequervain’s tendinitis emphatically thanks the Spin N Bead Jr!! 

By the way…I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday, filled with lots of fun, family, and tastey goodness!  Mine was splenderific…and I have 2 items of wonderful news discovered over the last 48 hrs that I will share with you as soon as I can!  Secret surprises can can be super tastey too.  😉
