Okay, so remember those butterfly and sunflower beads Greg made? The ones he told me I should do something with. In case you don’t, here ya go:
So yesterday, I decided to run with that idea. This time I am certain it was a collaboration and not just an idea rip off. These are really my design, just using Greg’s murrini flowers and adding the butterflies. It’s the same design I use on most of my flower beads. Turns out it was much easier than I though it would be. I surprised myself that I was able to use the butterflies and not smear them. In fact this is really the first time I ever had permission to use the butterfly murrini (all other murrini has always been fair game, just not the butterflies). I have used it once before in a witch, but I had to beg and put my sweetest effort into it. These were handed to me, with Greg’s blessing and I feel like I did them justice. I didn’t waste even one. I am so proud of myself. See them on ebay:
