Today I am honored to share the work of a very talented and very busy lady, Pam Andrews of A Bead Thing. You have met Pam before here on the blog, and she still creates some wonderful items. Showcasing her items on Handmade Aritsts, it is always a pleasure to see my friend's new work in the listings on the home page or reading her funny and poignant posts in the forum.
Pam has expanded her talents beyond jewelry and has Incorporated quilling into her artists repertoire. Quilling is the art of curling paper and forming three dimensional sculptures. Pam has updated this art by using it to make hair accessories. Clever!
Pretty in Pink Paper Flowers
Product Details:
This hair clip is
created using the age old art of quilling and I have used 1/4 inch
paper strips in a variety of colors ranging from dark pink to coral to
simulate the various colors and stages of flowers bloom. Flower is
attached to 1.5 inch alligator clip and glass pearl beads have been
added for beauty and dimension.
Flower has also been coated for durability and it will withstand damp hair but of course stay out of the rain showers.
Custom orders accepted.
Product Details:
Handmade lovely princess length necklace created using a "chenille" stitch. This is very similar to the herringbone stitch, using 15/0 seed beads in "matte teal" and "metallic brass". Necklace is 19 inches from clasp end to clasp end. A flared filigree bead cap has been modified to form around the end of the neckace on either end to attach the clasp. This necklace is lightweight and flexible and will be a joy to wear or give as a unique handmade gift.

Crochet Flower Necklace
Product Details:
This flower
necklace is a crochet project using burgandy and bright yellow acrylic
yarn. I have also used a light fern green acrylic for the stems and
leaves.
This is a delight to wear and can be worn as choker with stems and leaves falling down or loosen so that the stems and leaves are closer to flower for a more draped effect.
