Hand Painted Wood Accessories by YourMoodYourWood

 Yulia Priymenko, a Ukrainian artist is just plain talented!  Her Etsy, YourMoodYourWood, showcases her artistic skills with her one of a kind hand painted wood accessories.  Large round wooden discs are beautifully painted with butterflies and flora indicating her love of nature.


She also hand paints wooden bow ties - a unique and novel accessory indeed!  She is also an animal lover as many of her designs feature animals of all kinds.


Also noteworthy is the way she photographed her accessories, both singly and in groups. She does have a very good eye for what looks good!

Beaded Jewelry Tutorials for a Scientist?

Something about Sonysree Creations' beaded bracelet tutorial caught my attention.  I couldn't quite put my finger on the why for a while.  It is a lovely and simple design for those who want a quick project. And it has a contemporary look about it. Then I realized what it was!  The seed bead sections look like erlenmeyer or conical flasks which are found in laboratories!  This design will be perfect for a scientist!


This designer uses monofilament (fishing line) which is trickier to use than the typical beading threads like Fireline. She explained why, "I had lots of problems with monofilament when I was started working with it. I love work with Fireline, Wildfire etc . But those threads are more expensive, I can't afford it. I don't want stop beading because of thread. Beading is my passion. So I started loving monofilament . "Something is better than nothing " .. Now I can manage with monofilament..we are good friends now ...( except peyote stitch)".

It is a versatile design as you can use either 11/0 or 10/0 seed beads.  If you prefer 10/0 seed beads and can't find these locally, check this source.

 


And here is the necklace version.  Note how she added extra large beads to help the design curve more.
