I think what she does with the stencil and pastels is brilliant!! And her end product? I've searched for beads just like that many a time, so I'm delighted to have such a great tutorial to help me make it.<br /><br />I think making one to slide over a kumihimo tube would be one huge honkin bead Pearl! I'm wondering how many people would like something that big? For me no problem...I like big. Guess this goes back to our discussions on what sizes people will buy and wear. <br /><br />Then again, I suppose you could always French knit a tube and then slide it through a draw plate to reduce its size...hmmmm-....the possibilities are endless!aimshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12685252628734838159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312145685876120575.post-17806669844031408402016-12-10T19:58:09.588-05:002016-12-10T19:58:09.588-05:00I don't really know how it should be pronounce...I don't really know how it should be pronounced.

Thankfully, she changed that as the video went on. Yay!!Perri www.ShaktipajDesigns.etsy.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07142497366790866555noreply@blogger.com
