#ornament take 2, in blue/silver/white. Still not quite circular as opposed to ovoid, but better. Think if I do the blues again I'll do a flat opaque white with a slightly darker accent color. #beads #beadart #art #xmas #ornaments #crafts #pixelart

Testing an ornament design. Think it needs to be a pixel less on each side, but I like how it came out otherwise.

Hit the halfway point on this #wip. think if I had to do this over I would have gone with a less green toned brown bead color than db2142 but it is what it is. 65/130 rows.

Bead project #throwback time: Tetris Dance. Tell me you don't hear a tinny chiptune rendition of Tchaikovsky's Trepak when you look at this.

In between everything else I gotta do this weekend I should sit down and figure out my web store. The new paypal buttons no longer require a goat sacrifice to set up, so there goes that excuse for not doing it.

You try sticking to St Peter approved language when your cat spills a tray of 1.3x1.6mm beads into the carpet.

ohhh i feel seen here
Every few years I’m like “I know how to bead, I should just do it myself!” And then I buy a bunch of beads and then they sit in a drawer for all eternity.

while this made me giggle a lot i cannot recommend kevlar thread for when you really REALLY need something to not break. Fair warning a) it's pricey b) it will truly spoil you on all other thread.
Help I said something embarrassing

A beader asked what they could make earrings with that would be stronger than thread and I replied spaghetti

Back to working on this piece. Row 60/130, almost halfway up and I might be running out of my shades of brown _again_. >_< But hey you can see the bottoms of cups now! #beads #beadsky #beadart #delicas #wip

oops. I forgot that my bead Bluesky existed again. I should be better about that.

To summarize in a word: messy. anagramofbrat.net/beads/wp/202...

Progress shot on the self portrait. 13920/20800 beads, or 87/130 rows, or a hair over 2/3rds of the way done. Shooting for done by Dec 10.

By the way? no one ever tells you how creepy stitching your own eyes feels. 😬

also since the post didnt make it over here: in addition to the other 3 bead projects I need to work on and finish I also have an Our Flag Means Death project in the works. The jokes are going to be so bad, y'all. anagramofbrat.net/beads/wp/202...
Oh no (yo ho)
And out of absolutely nowhere, another project.

manifesting colder weather by making a penguin, plus some organizational stuff that got done this week: anagramofbrat.net/beads/wp/202...
Too warm in the Northeast today.
Wishing for cold weather and making penguins as a result, and also some hardcore organizing of bead stuff.

I keep forgetting about this account over here! Fell down an organizing rabbit hole last night. Only about 60% of my delica bead stash is shown here; there are vials in my collection that were purchased before my kids existed in any kind of capacity, the eldest of whom started college this year. 😳

Argh, stupid adhesive failure.

*sigh* Here we go again.
Had another adhesive failure on a pin.

Branching off my beadstuff into its own bluesky account. Fingers crossed that I'm able to keep up with it.
