Speaking of Spring… here is an amazing micro beaded beret done by a very special PWA friend and artist, Brooke Swinney. It’s titled “Springtime in Paris”.
Several years ago Brooke grabbed a hold of our O’So Sticky Tape and micro beads and she took them to a whole new level that we like to call “Bead Extreme”! See for yourself just how extreme she went in these photos of Brooke’s beret!
This is the top view:
Brooke’s designs include teeny tiny details, like this little beaded blue bird:
Here’s a butterfly created with O’So Sticky Tape, micro beads and wire:
Paris just wouldn’t be complete without a bereted poodle:
Here we have a swan sailing on the Siene:
I just love this cute little ladybug:
Isn’t the detail simply stunning?
Brooke, you are an inspiration my friend!
Hugs, Suzanne
P.S. Someone asked a question about how many beads Brooke used to create this beret and I honestly cannot answer that question, sorry! I sent Brooke a flat rate box full of beads because she was also doing some boxes for us – I’ll be sharing photos of those soon so be sure to check back for more amazing and EXTREME micro beading!
Oh my goodness. What a lot of detail. It must have taken hours. It's beautiful and sooo colorful.
