Beaded Flowers Posted by Hello
I love making french beaded flowers and I have made quite a few but I have never been satisfied with wreaths made entirely from just beaded flowers. These beaded roses (made from seed beads) and leaves went into a wreath I completed last year (nope I stupidly didn't take pictures when it was all done). I had picked up "Beads in Bloom" at some point last year and learned the technique. Then, while surfing, I found the wreath below.

The wreath below mixes beaded roses with silk leaves and grape vines and is courtesy of BeadJewelryMaking.com. It is simple yet exquisite and an unexpected combination. Next time I make some beaded flowers I will consider something like this. The technique is available on the page and is worth trying.
