Plan A hardly ever comes to fruition for me. So, when Plan B takes shape, it usually feels right. I had mental plans to make bell shaped flowers for my next column in Bead Design Studio, using cone shaped mandrels. However, I could not get the mandrels in time. So, plan B stepped in.
I used a regular mandrel and these turned out more delicate than anything I could have created on the cone mandrel. And I like them! They look like little twirling crinolines. They are for the wedding issue, but I think in brighter colors, they would look nice for every day projects.
P.S. Check out my free project on Bead Design Studio: http://www.beaduniquemag.com/projects/index.shtml
Go Vitamin B!
These are so pretty in pink! But you might want to check the spelling: "Check out my free project on Dead Design." I'm pretty positive you mean "Bead" :)
