Orchid Necklace

Last weekend I decided to try out something completely new for me - beaded flowers. I've never been a big fan of those, but then I saw couple of beaded orchid pictures and fell in love... Here is my own try to create a beaded orchid. I didn't have any patterns so I just tried to do something off the top of my head. Two painful days of adding and removing beads brougth me to this.


It still doesn't quite look the way I wanted, but now I've learned from my own mistakes. Hope that next one will be perfect. =)

Thank you very much! I had an inspirational picture, which I unfortunately don't know the author of. And this is just my interpretation. =) Hopefully I'll get enough strength to make one more in lighter colours for summer outfits. =)

Thank you! Actually, it's not so complicated once you figure out how it's done. With a little bit of time and experiments - you can do it! =)
