Cane beads
I have recently fallen in love with these beads. Unlike some of you, I
don't know what is made where is strong/weak made well/valuable etc... I just know what I like. I tried the three different kinds, just to see what they looked like in person...Chinese, craft store(blue moon) and... wait for it.....David Christensen.....(big heavy sigh) The Christensen ones seem so wonderful to me, I'd like to learn how to do this. (but I probably won't) So...these are my questions. What do I do with these? They are too fancy, (imo) to string a bunch together,(meaning the DC ones) so I need ideas. My other question is, how are these made? Are there sites where I can see how they are made? I can't find a web site for David Christensen, but I'm not the world's greatest searcher. In case anybody hasn't bought these beads, it's like this; the Chinese ones, you have to hold them up to a bright light to see that there are caning stripes in them. I think, why bother to put that detail in if you can't see it....the bead store ones are pretty colors, but I think the inside color might be painted...the Christensen ones are so detailed and the colors are so unique..I could look at them all day. (now that I'm talking about them, I want more...and more) so, any ideers? |
