The Results of my Cellini Spiral Project
I made my lampwork beads ready to use in my cellini spiral creation -
I chose the seed beads and gemstones that I thought would best go with the colour scheme -
I made my second cellini spiral, giving me two equal lengths to work with -
I began with making the toggle and loop with the finger weaving method, then added a section of seed beads, gemstones and my lampwork spacer beads. I put all the threads down through the cellini spiral tube and sewed each end using the nymo thread I had left as tails. Continued with my finger weaving....and here is the finished project -
What do you think - a successful project? I'm personally very happy with the outcome and have named it 'Persian Garden'

That is absolutely beautiful! It looks like a labor of love. I'm not sure I would have the patience. How long did it take you?
Thank you! I didn't actually take note of the time I spent making this piece but I would say approx. 15 hours. I thoroughly enjoy making my wearable art!
