Progress - Day 2

Here is a quick sneak peak at my first beaded collar type necklace.  After receiving my beads from ArtBeads, I quickly got to work.  I have the majority of the bead embroidery done, just a few more rows to go.  Then onto embellishing, sewing it onto the leather, and making a spiral rope to finish it.  Almost done (I wish).

But even though I have a ton of work to do on it still, I'm really happy with it.  I'm really having a lot of fun working in bead embroidery.  It's fun to use the beads to paint pictures.  I see plenty of bead embroidery in my future.

Stay tuned for more progress pictures in the upcoming days.  We have a busy week ahead of us, but hopefully I can make some time for beads.

Can't wait to see the completed piece! I still haven't started my Artbeads piece yet...guess I should get on it today :) You make me feel like a slacker!

I figured I better get started when they posted the first round of pieces. I was like, 'crap, I better get going'. Oh life, sometimes it just gets in the way ;-)
