About Me
- Oksana Starzhynska
- My blog's main subjects are sewing, the thing in which I am experienced the most, and beadwork, which is, in fact, pushed me into blogging. I am also engaged in knitting and crocheting. All together they are the set of skills which I use to make my wardrobe my whole life. These are not my only interests, I also like the English language (that's one of the reasons that my blog is bilingual), try to travel around my country and abroad (when can afford it), am interested in art (to the degree of a dilettante but nevertheless) and adore the people who can create anything beautiful or useful whatever it is :-) So welcome to a needlecrafter diary!

No Guelder Rose, No Girl Earrings :-)
I mean not the berry exactly but the jewelry made of the red beads that remind it with colour. For the title to this short post I chose a changed Ukrainian expression relating the symbolism and meaning of that berry for our culture. It sounds: "There is no Ukraine without guelder rose". The jewelry (mostly necklaces) from red beads (corah-ly) are a part of our national costume.
In the end of the work when reinforcing the last row of white seed beads, it became clear why 6 mm pearls are not very right choice for such a project. They are too smooth and the seed beads were sliding around them. So finally I pulled the thread through all the seed beads around omitting the pearls. It helped to some degree.
I also beaded 6 seed beads for the embellishment instead of 7. They were too many for me maybe because as always I used 10.0 seed beads instead 11.0. So to make the loop in different way.
Також замість 7 бісерин в останньому ряду оздоблення додавала 6. Можливо тому, що я, як завжди, замість бісеру 11.0 використала 10.0, 7 було забагато. Тому мені довелося петлю для гачка зробити трохи по-іншому.
