Hello, everyone.
This is a progress update on the heart fidget. More elements have been placed and the filling of the background has commenced.
The white circles are
mother of pearl beads. Their framing rows are
15 count rocaille beads. The background on the left side is mostly the 11 count transparent red seed beads. The contrast in color between the left and right background is because the rocaille beads have an iridescent finish on them. The beads are overall pleasant to touch and run fingertips over--which is really the whole point of a fidget in my opinion.
A book that the Christmas angels brought me, which is very helpful with thinking about these things, is
Bead Embroidery Jewelry Products by Jamie Cloud Eakin. (The link goes to Amazon, but it may be available in your local bead or craft store. Along with the
goodies beads to make the projects!)
