I recently joined a clay bead swap group. I even signed up for two swaps. Which is sad because my own swap group hasn't swapped in over a year. *hangs head in shame*
One swap is for rainbow bead sets. I loooove rainbow themed anything. I really enjoyed making these.
The little white flower petals have irridescent white glitter on them. Which turned out looking more like texture than glitter. SO..I added pearl mica powder also. I still wasn't 100% happy with them, but they are still cute.
There's not much story behind the tire shaped beads. I wanted basic B&W spiral beads...but didn't want the typical round shape. So they got a light squish. :)
I also signed up for a MG pendant swap. I planned ahead and made an extra set of rainbow beads, just in case. But I didn't make extra pendants. Two more people have signed up since I made these.
I don't know if I should make a different style or keep going with more of these. These are not terribly time consuming...just wire consuming. :) But aren't they cool?! I'm going to make one for myself eventually.

Ohhh I Peeked!!!! Those rainbow beads are really adorable! I gotta make something different now!!
But that MG is Beautiful, the wirework makes them awesome.
I cant wait....
BTW if you get your swaps going again I'll jump in.
Hugs, Pam
Thanks Pam! I'm glad you like them..since you are getting one of each. LOL!
Thanks for being willing to swap in my group as well. I love getting things from the other side of the planet. Maybe it's because I'm not a world traveler. Just the simplest polymer clay trinket seems so fantastic and exotic to me. :)
