Beaded Bead - "The Basket"

Here is where the beaded bead obsession has lead me - The Basket.

As I was making this piece I started to see the bead looking like a basket of flowers,

so I went with it and made the last part of the embellishment look like a basket.

I'm very pleased with this one and have received lots of favourable comments.

My "addiction" to these beaded beads is leading me to create a necklace of beaded beads.

I have five made already and need to come up with a few more designs,

then I can weave them all together and finish with a rope.
