Jewelry making

I have been taking some classes in beading while down here. The coral/brown bracelet is called kumihimo and is a form of weaving with the beads. I just finished the matching necklace and just need to put the clasp on it. 

The second necklace is a spiral beading technique that I made with 2 kinds of crystal beads and black faceted beads. Very sparkly. I finished another last night, goes quickly.

Next week I will take another class to make a wire crocheted bracelet. And then sadly the store is closing but the gals doing the classes will still do some so I will get to try more new things next year!
