Inspire Me Thursday Challenge – Make a Gift

Posted in beads, challenges with tags , , on December 9, 2008 by thecrimsonmoon

The theme on Inspire Me Thursday this week is to make a gift. Not a hard challenge for me as I usually make all my gifts! It’s not a cost thing, a lot of the time it would actually be cheaper to buy something. But I would much rather give a gift I’ve made with my own two hands, specifically for that person and always created with love. How many times can you say that about a massed-produced item? So here’s my handmade gift, a mini book thong for a friend of mine who always has a book on the go and loves flowers & plants. The buds are made from tiny seed beads woven around a wooden core.

Here’s a couple of new mini book thongs I’ve made and added to the website, along with the prism book thong I made last week. I love making these so much, I find it hard to stop!

This mini book thong will certainly brighten up anyone’s reading! I’ve used a gorgeous artisan glass  lampwork bead on one end and on the other a cluster of Swarovski crystals in a myriad of colours.
