foxhill designs vt says:Great compostion! Have you tried kumihimo? I think it looks like fun, but haven’t tried it yet.

PPR says:Yes, I know how to do Kumihimo and it is fun. I love looking for new beads and colors all the time. Learning is easy, just takes time stringing all the beads on the thread before you begin. Give it try and you will get hooked.
Thank you for your comments.

Julie Shane says:Yep. Great task for when I actually have time. I can choose between grading papers and crating lovely jewelry….. So why isn’t it actually MY choice???
btw: No surprise: but I love the olive/olivine pairing.
