Mobile phone lariats

Made some lariats! This is the one currently hanging off my phone:

Origami and Lariats

Been to the post office a few times in order to post the below to England. 1st time it was closed. 2nd time I was told they don't send packages only letters! So now I will be traveling 20 kilometres to the city to "try (Please God)" and post this item before my poor customer cancels the order!!

Irie! part 2 Lariat set



Lariat set and origami boxes.



The Irie set went into this box.

Update

It has been a busy few months for me here in Egypt. I've had a few bazaars to attend and some new techniques to learn.

One of them being Origami!

Here are some highlights of what I've been up to.





This set was requested by colour and interpreted into chain maille and millefiori beads by me.



Some recycled beads bead caps and a bit of wire wrapping. I made the large hoop with 1.5 wire and a large Pritt glue stick as a mandrel!



A closer look at the earrings from the red and gold set.



Part of my Eid present to myself. A diamond shaped wire wrapped pendant. I used 1.5 silver wire and loooads of different sized beads with .4 wire as my "thread"

It's been a while

But a lot of work done! :-)

I've been messing around with chain maille some more.....









And then I moved on to Lariats. Gorgeous, time consuming but worth it pieces of work!







Oh and in between all of this I went back home to Egypt and started back at our new school premises!

I finished!

Today I finished the red and silver byzantine aaaand I made a pair of purple and silver earrings. I tried to do the European 4 - 1 but bwoy did I flop at that!

I will try again in a few days! In the meantime look above for todays work.

My current project

I am currently working on a coloured Byzantine chain. Someone asked me if I could do it in colours and so I thought hmmm let me do some research!

So I found I could indeed order coloured rings and here is how far I have gotten. (See above)
