Play with Beads 玩珠珠

These days, I indulged myself playing with beads.  I love stones, jades, crystals, and pearls.  I enjoy shopping around those stores. I can not deny that I love diamonds too.  But they are far beyond my budget, so I'd tried not to look at or even think of them.
Last month, I ordered 2 books teaching how to chain beads and make ornaments from beads, crystals and stones.  Then I started studying them.  They seemed very difficult for me to understand, but I was determined to make something out of it. So I ordered some precious materials and made pendants and a ring.  It took me much time to go over the steps, tear things apart and and redo them.  I am glad that I finally learned how to read and follow the steps.  Last time I was so worried about my knitting because the instructions in the books seemed so hard to understand.  But I tried anyway and made some clothes wearable. So I knew very much this time that I just need to try. On the process, it was like solving a puzzle, difficult but fun.
Here are my finished works~
