IS THIS FELT BEADS OR VELVET BEADS
Whenever you enter a Bead shop or store or even any jewelry store, you must definitely see all sorts of beads; ranging from Gemstones, Faceted Crystals, ABS Beads, Acrylic Beads, Findings and all sorts. If you already have a good knowledge of Beads, then you would not worry when you site the popular known ones, but is suddenly you stop and site a bead that looks strange, then you would definitely Pause and wonder what you have missed.
That was the effect the Felt/Velvet looking beads had on me, when I came across it.
They are absolutely beautiful and I did not bother to check the balance on my account and ordered immediately.
They have the feel of felt beads and velvet beads. Although the base is Acrylic beads, but it is firm to touch and has a bit of sparkle to it, when moved around like the AB beads
When it finally arrived, I could not wait to create something with it and finally came up with this.
They would like perfect for earrings during the summer. It would also be perfect For Children's craft. It would definitely remind them of sweeties. You can send me an email on mereubah@hotmail.co.uk for further information on the beads or you can search on Ebay or even Amazon.

WHY DO WE BEAD?
Majority start Beading for Pleasure and maybe later have business in mind. While for others is to be creative. But one thing beading does to everyone, is the excitement that you are creating your own custom made jewellery, without out splashing out so much money in one of those high street shops.
My first one made me want more beads, before you know it, I started looking for courses in beading. One good thing though, is that you meet others like yourself, who cannot stop. At least you are not the only one mad about beading
My very first one looked like this
Turquoise Gemstone beads is almost owned by everyone that collects Gemstones.
I used the knotting technique in between beads and tried using Gimp, jump ring and large lobster clasp to finish it.
I definitely received a lot of compliments, but was still worried it might fall off my neck. I was more concerned of the clasp coming loose, instead of enjoying the beaded jewellery on my neck
