Well, I admit I fell in love with soutache bead embroidery lately. They're lovely and very easy to make than I first though. My first try is Lady Mary's pendant. I bought the pattern/tutorial from Jodi Horgan. The tutorial is perfect, full instruction and lot of pictures, and even me, who never do embroidery before, still can do it quite easily. Jodi is very responsive and answer my questions too. So if you're looking for any soutache tutorial online or kit, I highly recommend her shop.

This is Lady Mary's pendant.



After I succeeded making it, I went ahead and made my own pendant and this is what I made.



Around the Opalite. It was a real run doing it.

Now, I'm looking for more cabs. Hope to find good cabs here so that I don't need to buy from other countries. lol

In 2004, tsunami happened in SE asia and caused more than 230,000 deaths in 14 countries.

Dear customers and friends, April is a month for long holidays in Thailand. We'll celebrate Thai New Year, aka Songkran festival, our famous water splashing festival. Most services are closed including Thai Post. All my shops will be set to vacation mode during April 12 - 22. I may or may not be at home, don't know yet. But I think beading by the sea or in the wood must be good for a change. Happy holidays~!

My recent projects, I believe I can finish the tutorial very soon. Both bracelets used the same technique, only few beads different, so I think I can make both bracelets in one tutorial. Will see~

I'm still alive and fine. Just a bit busy with everything. Well, you know or maybe you'll get use to it when I'm away for a while means I'm busy. lol

These are some of my latest projects, mostly they're from Bead & Button April issue and some are the design I bought from the artists from etsy.





I admit I appear more on Facebook than writing the entry in LJ. It's faster and easier to update everything in one go. Also, visit my flickr if you want to check out my latest projects.

A short note before I go, my 5301 clearance sale on my shop will end on March 31. If you need to stock up your beads, please hurry. I ship worldwide with tracking number (Italian customers are welcome). A big thanks to all my customers and friends!!! I love you all~! :D
