Paper Beads



My newest fascination is with trying to make all kinds of things from my large collection of paper and also from recycled materials. I kind of get bored with just one thing after a short while so i move on. Today i moved on to paper beads ... These are the results of my days work. The tubular beads are the ones I made and have added some plastic ones in just for display. It was a lot of fun and will be doing some more of these.

Gothic Arch Book












I am quite taken with the gothic arch shapes and decided to make one myself, then another and another etc and decided to make them into a book in the end. The front cover is the fairy arch and shows the ribbon and bead ties and the rest are the inner pages which are decorated on both sides so in all there are ten pages in total. I have enjoyed this project very much and may do more books or maybe some arches in frames. Only time will tell ....

Help Please !!! RED FEATHER

Ok I have been looking around for a new 'Red Feather ' award to give out but ....
i have a good few that deserve the award and am struggling so have decided to enlist your help if possible
The award is for a single work of art, be it : atc,altered art,card,painting ...anything at all

From today i am looking for nominations from other bloggers so please could you help me by nominating someone for the award ???? I would like at least 4 nominations before an award can be given to the artist.
You may nominate any piece of work, whether you know the person or not and even if its your own work but i will be looking at all nominations before giving the 'Red Feather' award and maybe will be taking a vote on them too
Thanks in advance
June xxxx
