Barbara Roberts: bead swap!

Barbara Roberts sent in some really great beads for our swap.
She wrote me an email saying, "Here is how I made them. They were all fabrics wrapped around a coffee stir stick with fabric tac glue on the ends. I decorated them in different ways-
Some I rolled into embossing ink and embossed with “Enchanted Gold” which retained the color of the pretty fabrics, but put a sparkle to them. Some I wrapped wire and seed beads around them, some I wrapped fiber and wire around them and some I wrapped fiber around them."

Thank you, Barbara! here are some close-ups.
