Beaded Jewelry - Blog Posts
Two new ones. The one on the left i'm very proud of, it's for a friend. The one on the right i'm tempted to keep but probably won't end up wearing...
Bracelets. There will be more.
These are all of the ones i've made (for myself, for a friend, and maybe for sale) in the last two days
I was wearing the lichen themed hair clip I made, while on a walk yesterday. I spotted some beautiful lichen and moss and decided to have an impromptu photo shoot. So here are a whole bunch of pictures of my hair clip alongside the organisms that inspired it, just because.
Plus 2 bonus pictures of lichen because I love it.
I wanted to enter an embroidery competition that was run by Domestika. And this is what I ended up coming up with. It is a lichen themed French barrett hair clip.
Prior to planning and making my embroidery I went on some walks and took some photos for inspiration.
I really love lichen it's such a strange thing. The physical structure of lichen is a fungi that clings to tree branches, rocks, and other solid surfaces. The fungi provides a home for a colony of tiny algae or cyanobacteria. The algae or cyanobacteria photosynthesize producing sugars and other molecules that they share with the fungi. These are what give the lichen its colours. So lichen isn't really one thing. It is a living collaboration of two completely unrelated organisms. It can survive desiccation and bounces right back with a little rain.
It looks a bit like coral and can be used to indicate air quality. Overall a fascinating and splendid amalgam.

@WolfyTheWitch, you are an amazing content creator and always keep my spirits up. Even though I don't have Twitter, I see your tweets and Tumblr, and they light up my day. Since I'm American and you tweet when I sleep, I wake up to you. I laugh and love every bit of the arts that you create with you and friends. I made this cute beaded string with your name on it. It may be small, but it holds a huge place in my heart. I hope you like it and you keep being you! :D
I do believe this is more than Tommy and Wil lmao. Love these guys with all my heart
I was playing around with my beads last night and decided to make these. I'm thinking of doing Wil and Tommy next? π€
