Another great tutorial that Brownies and Guides need to see since they take knotting as part of their point system.
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute and colourful!
Did I ever tell you that I have purses that my brother made when we were in our teens? He made them for our grandmother and they have beads woven in them and a lining and wooden handle. I have them hanging on a bedroom wall for decoration and I always look at them and marvel at how he did those (I won't say how many years ago) and they still look wonderful and are right in style too!
I marvel too at how macrame has made a big comeback in recent years!
DeleteI look forward to every e-mail from The Beading Gem's Journal. It's one of the best sources I've found for tutorials and inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for saying so! It is helpful to know I am doing something right!

ReplyDeleteI often look at things at 'Value Village' or some kind of second hand store and try to evaluate if that retro design is going to come back into style or not. It's really a fun thing to do and stretches your artistic brain as well...
