  1. I really admire your wife’s talent and patience to create those bracelets. The beads look tiny and I can imagine the very delicate and precise work it needs for such a beautiful result ! Congratulations to your wife and thank you for sharing her art with us.

    • Bonjour Isa.

      Thank You. My wife started with big beads and during years she passed to the tiny ones. You who are living in the middle of Europe, then check in some store how beautiful beads are made by Swarovski jewellery. In Frankfurt in Kaufhof they sell Swarovski crystal beads and one excellent shop was in Capri. I think that in Switzerland also there must be Swarovski shops. They are too expensive for ordinary people and that is why my wife cannot buy them. So next time, when You see Swarovski shop, pop in there to admire their beads out of curiosity.

      Patience is needed as You said to make these, so is it also valid for Quilting and You know very well.

  2. Your wife makes beautiful bracelets. I don’t think I would have the talent (or patience) to do anything like this. Thank you for sharing your wife’s wonderful bracelets with us.

  3. An interesting process! What detailed and painstaking work; a combination of talent, art and skill! The bracelet is very beautiful! Does your wife craft them under magnification of any kind?

    • Hi Montucky.

      Thank You. You are so right when commenting. My answer is yes to Your question. She is not using it not so much, but sometimes she really needs it. The magnifying glass is quite big on the table and it has a lamp too. During winter is very useful.

  4. Absolutely beautiful. You both have such skill and patience: your wife for doing the beadwork and you for breaking down the steps into images.

    • Hi Sherri Lynn Wood.

      So nice that You popped in here. Well, at this moment my wife loves tiny beads, because they are really a challenge to make pieces of jewellery. My wife feels that beading is excellent counterbalance to her daily stressful work. Thank You.

    • Hello Anne.

      I am so glad that You liked my post. Personally I love that people are doing things; are they made by hands or not, it does matter, because I do not love “passive persons”. Photographing nice example of excellent hobby. Through it one can discover an unknown world to him / her until now.

      Happy Sunday.

    • Hello London Caller.

      Thank You commenting. Interesting idea, but, my wife is making these only for herself, not to be sold. She enjoys the feeling of creating and I found it great.

  11. Very interesting, thank you for showing this fine and beautiful work by your wife! Let us propose a toast to the creative jewelry and your creative images of them. Later I can do it in walnut snaps ( http://truels.wordpress.com/2010/09/14/walnut-snaps/ ) These days I am doing the next steps in this process (and of course show this on my blog!)….

  12. This is gorgeous beadwork. My sister makes jewelry, so I know the time and skill that must be needed to make these. A work of art! Also saw the Christmas tree fashioned from beadson your about page. Loved it!

  16. Sartenada, thank you for your comment on my crochet wire necklace. I appreciate this link to your wife’s beautiful bracelet. Such detail! I don’t know if I have the patience for such a detailed project. She does beautiful work!

    • Hello Cindy.

      Thank You. I always appreciate comments when it is concerning hand made things. Yours is masterpiece also. I am sure that my wife is not starting to sell; she makes them just for fun, to learn and to enjoy the happiness of learning.

      Have a lovely day!

      Comment by sartenada — October 3, 2011 @ 17:13 | Reply

  17. Sartenada, your wife should try selling these on http://www.etsy.com. It’s a site for handmade works of art (and supplies as well). This way, she can price it at a price that is fair to her. I used to sell stuff on eBay, but it’s just not worth it anymore. Bidders expect to get things for $5 with shipping! I like etsy.com much better. I’m going to open a store on it soon. There are artists, crafters, jewelers, etc., from all over the world selling on etsy.com. Some are even making a living full time creating their artwork!

    I shall take some time to have a look through your previous posts, I’ve had a very quick look and there are some lovely things. I tried to make a spiral necklace but just couldn’t get the hang of it. I’m hoping your wife might make a tutorial some time?

    • Hi Elaine.

      Beading requires failures and successes, You know it. My wife has many tomes dismantled some of her bead works after having noticed an error she made. Lets us see if she has time to give a tutorial. Here the summer is coming and snow is melting, That means busy times. Thank You for Your comment.

      Happy beading.

      Thank You for Your praising words. Beading is her hobby and it really needs patience, hmm, maybe skills as well. After next week she will participate in a one week’s course which course leader is by Finland’s most famous beading teacher and writer.

    • Hello Rimassolosailingaroundtheworldm.

      Thank You. It is very understandable! Some blogs have so many interesting posts to be found and sometimes one cannot find them or to have an idea that they even exists. I guess that for example You do not have any idea that we made in Finland Allure of the Seas – world’s biggest cruise ship. Personally I take a look at older posts, not the newest one to find posts which have interest for me.

      Have a great day!

  35. Thanks so much for visiting and liking my blogs about Mexico. These bracelets you make are gorgeous! And I really appreciate your showing how to make them. I had a friend from Armenia who used to make eyeglasses holders that looked similar to these. I enjoy crafts and artwork of all kinds, which is one of the reasons I like this part of Mexico so much. The people are very creative, especially in textiles, pottery, carving, and tin work. Almost everything is extremely colorful, including some of the food!

    • Hi Marilyn.

      Those beads are made by my wife. It is her hobby. Yes, indeed in many countries there very skillful people to make things by their hands. If You are interested to see what ordinary people do by their hand in Finland, then take a look at my:

      Handicrafts made on courses.

      Thank You again for Your visit and for Your nice comments.

      Happy Friday!
