You get to know a lot of great folks on Twitter, and one of my cool Tweeps over there is Spike, a dog in-the-know when it comes to taking care of canines. He’s have a Barkhunt via Twitter, and a long with being a lot of fun, it includes some fabulous prizes, such as the jewelry set pictured above from my book Making Designer Seed Bead, Stone, and Crystal Jewelry
. The Bali-style necklace hook, daisy spacer beads, and ear hooks are sterling silver. The beads are yellow-lined coral Japanese seed beads, faux coral teardrop beads (I don’t like to use the real thing for obvious reasons), and gaspeite heishi beads. The bead weaving stitches include ladder and brick stitch.
You can find out all of Spike’s rules and regulations for the hunt on his web site.
Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes.
Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
