Kevin and I did a great half-day workshop with Helen G Beads. We have both been fascinated with these beads and wanted to know how they were created. We were amazed at what we managed to achieve. Helen was such a patient tutor and took us through the whole process.
We learned how to pull stringers, make beads and decorate them in four different ways. Kevin picked it up faster than me so he was ahead of me in the decorating. We are thrilled with the beads we managed to make and I will use then in a necklace which will be a nice souvenir of a great day. As a reward for his patience Kevin was treated to some real ale and I got one of Helen's own beautiful necklaces. She made the lovely heart too.
These are the beads we made
We want to go back soon!
