Felt beads and more

This rainy weekend I´ve taken a “scrapping-break”, I´ve got these skeins of wool back and I´ve made all these felt beads. It´s easy and funny, but a lot of time is required (and time is something I feel I can never get enough…). Just the wool (most important), soap and hot water and…round & round:

The next step will be to gather with some other beads I have and assemble them in a necklace, or a pair of earrings… I will show you the result (only if it´s worth).

Plans for this weekend included walks, sun and open air, but the weather betrayed us and had to stay at home most of the time. Anyway, it has been quite creatively productive. I also made this, just for fun. It´s a “second LO” for OLW, using the first word GO, not for the challenge obviously but for me because I want to try to do all the Lo´s for these challenges in a 8,5X11 format, and made a kind of “all about me” album with those words. And I felt like trying Ali´s technique using diamond glaze and painting over it. As I had not diamond glaze I used Gloo (KI Memories), Adirondack dabbers from Ranger, a few brads and some paper scraps from SEI and Basic Grey. I had a “little accident” with Gloo as my daughter was playing around me (see “for”) and I´m not very happy with the LO, but I liked trying it.

TFL!
