Bead work-- Page 1 --
The woman for whom beads have attraction is not easy to find. An admiration for beads is a characteristic of women of most nationalties. In the present day it is possible to get some really beautiful beads, and they can be used in so many different ways that delightful necklaces and chains can be made. Some of that season's novelties are really lovely. A few are illustrated here, but in pictures of this kind it is quite impossible to portray the beauty of the beads. Still, with some little description, these will give an idea of what can be obtained and made. The necklace shown at the top of this page is made of Venetian beads of a lovely shade of Turquoise, interspersed with gold filigree beads, the tiny beads being of metal, the same shade as the Venetian. As will be seen from the illustration, a double row of small beads is used for the upper portion , but after being threaded through the long bead on each side, the threads divide, and a pendant effect is given. A chain of this description is not at all difficult to make. Another illustration shows a very effective necklace made of two kinds of Venetian beads, the dark ones being black covered with exquisite little coloured flowers, while the lighter ones are of crystal and gold, with spots of pink. Between are gold torse beads and gold glass bugles. The chain is made on one thread only and is the simplest kind to make, and it is as will easily be seen most effective.
