Bead Embroidery UPDATED Jan 11 2013
I came across a Mill Hill small treasures book my mom had hidden away in the book case. I found a project in there I decided to try. I picked out some seed beads and Swarovski Crystals from my bead stash and some 32 count linen and went at her! I completed this one in about three hours:
I am currently working on a second one that is Christmas colors. I am thinking about turning them into Christmas Ornaments I think....not sure what else I could do with them.

This is beautiful! I've never tried anything like this. I think an ornament would be a nice idea

Re: Bead Embroidery
Lovely work, and they'd make beautiful ornaments!
(They's also make beautiful cards, although they'd probably be rather expensive to send )

Re: Bead Embroidery
That is gorgeous!! Actually that would work on my mom's tree, she decorates in pink and gold.. So it could still be an ornament, or you could do a few in a row across as a kind of hanging? Lots of possibilities!
Re: Bead Embroidery
I don't know how I missed this one, but beautiful work. These would make lovely ornaments
