New Tutorial! Easy Bell flowers $10
Hi All,
I have long been inspired by all the loverly beads that I have seen made with the Carlo Dona Bell flower press and I have so wanted to buy one. But to use a familiar catch cry from a fellow beadmaker, "I am a girl on a budget" and I simply cannot afford to buy one unless I win a lottery! Given that I am unlikely to win one anytime soon, I had to find my own way to make these. So I taught myself to make them using readily available tools that we all have on our work benches or available from your local hardware or electronics store! This tutorial shares the knowledge that I have discovered and refined on how to make these beads right now, no matter what your budget or skill level. It includes three mini-tutorials;
1. Bell flowers on wire
2. Drop Bell flower on mandrel
3. Bell flower on mandrel
It consists of 19 pages with clear, concise graphics plus photographs of each step and is available through my Etsy site. Price is $10 USD
I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with from this tutorial and thank you for all your support,
Cheers
Jenny
