Description
I am sooooo proud of this! It doesn't look as good in the pictures as it does in real life but can vouch for me where I say it's cool! I started beading this hummingbird about 2 years ago but I kept stopping because I got frustrated (my needle would break or I would run out of thread, that sort of thing). But I finally restarted it again on thursday night and I finished it late last night and it's really cool! I turned it into a necklace so it's fun to wear. In terms of hours I think it took me about.... 48 hours and it was done completely with a needle, thread, and beads. Oh and a bit of stuffing for the body but not much. Next beading project I'm going to do is either a spider, another dragonfly (which I'll turn into a hair clip) or I'll design a penguin figure.... not too sure though which to do, lol.In conclusion, Beading animals and small creatures is fun!

You're welcome for the fave, your beading skills are stunning! What stitch did you use? Brick? Peyote? Artistically Judged Yet Completely Random (one of my favorites)?

I don't get why I didn't notice this before.
Maybe because I don't browse DA as often as I ought.
This is lovely, where'd you learn how to do that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I learnt it from a beading store. They have all these different kits and such you can try. So of course, I choose the hardest
