This beaded Amulet Bag was forwarded to us by Robin Worth.
This is a fairly large amulet bag. The Greenman and Rhiannon are two of my favorite Pagan themes. I used several animal beads in natural stones in the fringe, and the body is of Delicas.

Laura M. Appelbaum sent in a picture of her version of the Embellished Floral Choker.
I just finished my own version of the Embellished Floral Choker, based on the one you have up on the Beadwork.About.com site and thought you might like to see it as I think it came out quite well. Since I designed mine using primarily Japanese #11 seed beads and Delicas, I made the right angle weave base two rows wide at the back and three rows wide where it was covered with flowers. For the flowers I used Japanese and Czech seed beads, vintage pressed glass beads, Austrian crystals and a few fresh water pearls. Thanks for the inspiration!

This picture of Dutch Spiral beading came from KelleeFBC.
This is my first Dutch spiral from your Dutch Spiral Necklace directions. I added a small ruffle on the edges and down the middle of the odd-count peyote part. This was a birthday present for a fellow beader. The necklace was 2 different silk cords with crystals tied (tin cup style) onto it intertwined with a rayon cord made by finger braiding.

This beaded doll was made by MarLin Beads.
This is one of a series of dolls designed and taught by MarLin beads. This fun version is of course a Carmen Miranda doll with bright yellow, greens, orange, reds and a full basket of fruit on her head. The base of the doll is peyote and she is surface embellished with lots of colorful beads.
