Beadwrangler's Floral Treasures    
"A BEADING KIT!" 

Vines & Vases, Flowers & Fringe, Leaves and "Sprig" - the leaf creature

Floral Montage

I knocked myself out with this kit; it was seven years in the making.  When I finished the kit booklet, the WebWizard, Dennis, thought we should break it down into more than one kit because it is so jam-packed with designs, 32 pages of fun.  I said "No, this is my gift to all my beady viewers; a pile of beaded floral designs that are very easy to make and wonderful to make jewelry, bouquets and give as gifts or use as decorations and they are all in one kit."  Just one flower makes a precious gift.

This kit is not French beaded flowers that are made of all wire strung beads.  I use wire only as an armature through the beaded flower centers so they will set up in bouquets or in a bud vase.  These are soft sensuous flowers that feel good to touch.  My Sea Anemone is to "die for yummy. "  It undulates and almost seems to come alive in your hand.  After making these florals with the kit beads, you can make more with bead mix and solid color beads and even make them with smaller and larger beads.  You will find it easy to make vines, flowers & petals, my Sea Anemone, mini trees, beaded beads, fringe, wire stems, stamens, vases and Sprig creatures.  Be sure and scroll down to see all my creations.
