I just finished another 'new' mirror. There are a few glitches to work out but I'm very excited about this prototype. The Turquoise Seed Bead Mirror is 34" in diameter and made with vitreous glass tiles, chained rhinestone and a variety of coloured seed beads (lots of them). Seed beads come in a huge array of stunning colours opening up a whole new, crazy, exciting world of design possibilities.
Maybe 'excited' is an understatement?

Lovely. Your 'excitement' is contagious and suggests Spring is really coming.
A gorgeous piece of art!

That mirror is GORGEOUS!
Where did you find those amazing beads? I've been looking everywhere for turquoise beads like those!
Thanks Jacqueline.
I get my 'Seed Beads' (that's what they're called) from John Bead in Toronto. They're a wholesale supplier but do have a small retail outlet (if you're in The GTA).
Seed Beads are imported from The Czech Republic and come in many stunning colours. I'm a kid in a candy store everytime I go there!
Welcome Mr. Goodwill!
You're in good company as a new follower with my Mom and one of my sisters!(lol).
Wow! and Wow! again!!!
Thank you Laura! And thank you again (lol)!!!
Hey Karen ... this one is an absolute stunner!
Love it.
Thanks Janet!
Seed beads are stunning. Hopefully (just need more time in my day) there will be many more stunners to come.
I am over the moon about your work! I was on Stumble and came to your work. You have more creative talent in one cell of your body than most people have in their whole body. It's a gift!
Blessings,
