PAINT PARTY FRIDAY DEC 6

Hi Everyone!
 Happy Paint Party Friday. This is a work in progress. Huichol beading of mans best friend.
First I choose a fabric that I want to work on. I draw out the picture I want and start the beading. Each piece is a little different but outlining is where I usually begin. From there it is where the beads take me. Huichol beading is adhering glass seed beads, hole side up, to what ever medium you are beading on with warm bees wax.





Be sure to stop by Paint Party Friday to see all of the other wonderful artists.
Thank you to Eva and Kristin for hosting Paint Party Friday
