Home decor -- with beads
Got any good ideas for beaded home decor to share? I saw this and it made me
think..... Though I don't like the beads they chose for this, it's still trippy. Anthropologie many-beaded knobs http://snurl.com/1d69 ~~ Sooz ------- "Those in the cheaper seats clap.

Beaded bottles, I have got 6 on various shelves in the house. Easy to
move around. Dare I say it, beaded tassels Again I have got them hung on drawer knobs and keys in cabinets. You could bead a rondel and hang it in a window.

Lots more. I thought some of these were good xmas ideas -- I know those of us
here could do a better job too. beaded frame http://snurl.com/1dld beaded wire frame (could be a way to display those lampwork beads you never plan to make into jewelry, too) http://snurl.com/1dlf beaded "Moroccan tile" coasters -- $28 for 6 makes these a steal. http://snurl.com/1dox beaded votive mini-chandelier SALE -- these are an outright steal! I'd rather buy these than make them! Sheesh. http://snurl.com/1dp4 beads & birds votive holder http://snurl.com/1dp5 embroidered silk frames -- These aren't beaded, but in my mind they are. I think I may make some of these myself. http://snurl.com/1dp6 Merry Christmas garland (I want this! Or something like it!) http://snurl.com/1dp8 first snow sparkle tree http://snurl.com/1dpa beaded dresses ornaments -- these are so COOL.

I made a "beaded" lampshade...I put beaded in quotes, because I didn't
actually bead the whole shade...just the fringe that hangs off it. Although a completely beaded lampshade would be cool...maybe I should look into that....My living room is about as dark as a cave since the new landlord put a porch on it, which required the removal of a window for the door out to it, and the door has no windows... With a totally beaded lampshade, that would definetly add some light... Marissa In article , Dr. Sooz writes Got any good ideas for beaded home decor to share? I saw this and it made me think.....

Hi Shirley...
How exactly do you make your beaded bottles? I've looked at photos of them and thought "I should make one", but am a little intimidated and don't understand how to do it. Do you use netting or ??? I've done beaded xmas balls, would they be beaded similar to those? TIA...Linda  On Fri, 24 Oct 2003 22:23:34 +0100, Shirley Shone wrote: Beaded bottles, I have got 6 on various shelves in the house.

OOOH, Marissa, you just gave me a fabulous idea for a silk lampshade I have. The
lining was shredded by the movers...and i've wanted to do something with it to diffuse the light a little bit more, since i can't find a new shade in my budget. this would be a great temporary fix...thanks! -- Jalynne Queen Gypsy (snail mail available upon request) see what i've been up to at www.100megsfree4.com/jalynne "Marissa Undercofler" wrote in message . net...

That *is* cool. My grandma is having me make some drawer pulls from some of
my lampwork beads. Also, I did some fan pull beads for someone earlier this month. I think beads can be used anywhere in the home, as long as they are firmly attached. -- Kandice Seeber Air & Earth Designs http://www.lampwork.net Got any good ideas for beaded home decor to share?

I usually start at the top and make a circular peyote to cover the top
of the bottle. I carry on down the side of the bottle until I have covered the cork area. Then I go to netting and embellish it afterwards. If It is a screw top bottle I leave the cap on. If it is a corked bottle I push the cork back in and try to get it level with the top of the glass. There are some of the bottles on the pages that Valerie put up for me. Not sure which page but here is the link. http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/irate/shirley.html http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/irate/shirley2.html Shirley In article 3f99c6d3.9171434@news, Linda D. writes Hi Shirley...

There is an octoganal window in the hall here. It lets light in so I dont
want to curtain over it, but it would be nice to add a little privacy. Ive been thinking of a beaded curtain, something a little prettier than the plastic bead door curtains we saw in the 70s, I hope. If I could afford it I would set a Huge clear glass bowl out on a table and fill it almost to the top with an assortment of lampwork beads. What would be really awesome is to figure out a way to put a light in the middle of the bowl so that at night the beads could glow. For a Christmas decoration Id love to fill a wooden salad type bowl with pinecones from different species of trees, then somehow put lampwork beads on wires? so they stay above the pinecones. Maybe hot glue would keep them in the right place through the holiday season? For a grandly awesome tree garland a string of beads would look so nice. Real glass... of sorts that appeal to you. Yummy.... or icicles for the tree... Diana -- http://photos.yahoo.com/lunamom44 "Dr. Sooz" wrote in message ... Got any good ideas for beaded home decor to share? I saw this and it made me think.....
