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!

Spikes & Co Earrings (eternal updating:-))
After finishing this project it occurred to me that maybe our works are not only the expression of our creative nature but as well the embodiment of our unconscious thoughts... I mean when starting beading (or re-beading) these pair of earrings I just wanted to have some wearable spiky pieces and now I see that I've got two stylised sea stars, haven't I? :-)
I liked the spiky earrings I made few month ago. It was a useful experience to give a try to soutage work but it was obvious I am out of age to wear them in that size. So I had either to make them less or change the design. I chose the latter, of course. So I unpicked the items and started surfing for some pattern. The idea from this video seemed to be suitable but as it often happens except the spikes I had no other needed beads to make the earrings.
But we never give up, don't we? I made the earrings from the materials I had and when all the beads fitted each other it became a new design:-)
And here they are. They had to remind the sun but remind the sea:-) I guess they suit the pendant and the bracelet much better. Besides, now I have some more spikes left so the updating will continue:-)
