Thanks Rachel!

For how long I can make this set in less than a hour, but that is only because I have been making these beaded creations for a long time.

But I can tell you if i wasn't experienced it would take about a week to finish this alot of details, colors, and techniques used in it.

Thanks so much I really appriecate your comments!
Hope your having a crafty day:o)

Those are really awesome! One suggestion - I would keep the background paper lighter to allow them to pop a little more. Maybe a sea blue. I wish I could do beading as pretty as these!

Awesome creations! They really are neat, but I have to agree with the background paper being too busy to really see your wonderful work!

Can you recommend a book or some website where we can learn to make these. They look so great.

Thumbs up Beautiful!

I used to teach art and did a similar project - the kids designed and made rings like this. I assume it was done the same way, run the wires back and forth thru each row of beads... I gave each student a piece of grid paper to plan their designs and they came out wonderful!

Of course, your fishes are just FANTASTIC! Great idea for an embellishment!
