    Thanx malathy for your idea..Let me see.

    Yeah chithra..not much interested in doing jewellery. but after seeing your works, who knows I may also try my hands in that :crazy.
    Anyway if you come across some other ideas let me know :idea.
    Okay if not a purse..will a phone pouch be good. But then i can do more than 2-3 pouches with the number of beads i have.

    Hi Saras, was just reading yours and chitra's exchange over these beads.
    Got an idea. If you think you are happy make use of it.
    You can edge your dupatta with these coz these are the most inthing now.
    Any white plain duppatta would look more attractive with these as edges and probably you can do some mirror work here and there on the whole duppatta.

    Chitra, what say you ????

    Sudha dear, seems a nice idea.
    Instead of duppatta, will it be nice, if I do it on my room screens? I have a maroon velvetty screens in my house now What do you think about that !

    I chanced upon a beaded flower vase, while randomly googling.

    Besides that I come across purses/jewellery only ..which I am thinking to keep as the last option.

    Thanx dear for chipping in here. Will keep you updated.

    Actually yes, that is even a better idea.
    Maroon and Pearl white would team up well.
    These days in hotels all these curtains are having some beaded hangings as well and those are generally crystal hanging beads.
    See good you brought it out and people come up with ideas !!!!

    Hi Saraswathi
    As Sudha has told Maroon with pearl will go well....& mor attractive.... Now u have to decide whether to stitch those beads along the edge or thro'out the screen....
    Happy beading

    Dear Chitra,

    Wow, really very very cute. Hanging these assorted designs in the window does really look good.
    I am yet to make the table chair, that I planned :bonk. Meanwhile tried to do a mini night-lamp shade with beads and safety-pins. It did not turn out beautiful. I am dismantling it and will try to make it right.

    And also did the peacock with ear-buds, after being inspired by another ILites work. I did it on a glass. Will do the finishing touch and show you :)

    By the way, I love your enthusiasm. :cheers
    Bye

    I'm eagerly waiting to see your Night Lamp & Peacock with ear buds.
