Happy Pink Saturday! I apologize for getting my pink up so last minute. I am still visiting and thoroughly enjoying your posts! I am sharing my pink rose lights. I have them strewn across my mantle and amongst my oil lamps collection...
There is a little pink in my beading challenge project for this month also. As some of you may know, I have challenged myself to learn a new beading technique each month. May's challenge was a technique most beaders already know and many started with. It is called the 'peyote' stitch. For me it was difficult to get started and easy once the first three or so rows were completed. Beading Daily had some great ring projects for beginners and a great tip. One of my previous posts talks about Beading Daily. It is a great site for any of you who may be interested in trying something new! Below is a small relish dish I incorporated to keep everything together on my lap as I work. I will discuss it more on my other blog.
Here are some of my completed rings...
As you can see on the closeup, it is important to use uniform beads. The pink cylinder beads I used were all over the place and although I tried to be careful I picked up one that was longer than the others.
I love how they sparkle in the sunlight!
I haven't made a firm decision as to what my June challenge stitch will be, but I better soon since it is already the 5th! It has been a busy month so far.
Have a great weekend and thank you so much for visiting today! I would love for you to leave me a comment!
