I mentioned last week I am beading onto washers this month. I intended to use locking washers, but had only been able to develop the ones with the points inward.
I took a bit more time on Monday and worked out a better plan for the ones which point outward. The companion to the one I tried,(pointing in) was also difficult, so it may have been the bead size.
Here are the 2 trial ones which worked (I showed the first one last week)
So, now I have matching pairs to go with no. 152
I had run out of the metallic greeny-blue beads from a blend of beads by this point, so tried these other green ones. Of course this is very close up, at a distance they look more like they match.
and 153 from last week.
and now for this week
no.154
no.155
no.156
using some multi-coloured metallic beads for the next few. They look one colour but when they roll around they look a completely different colour. I usually like to select the same colour, so I thought using these combined with a single colour bead would be a good way of using them up. - I used silver with them for 155. So went back to it for the rest of the week. With pink, then purple, then bronze and then copper.
no.157
no.158
no.159
no.160
and it worked! I only have 3 misshapen beads left from the multi-coloured ones.

These are so cool, I never would have thought to bead washers.
Thanks Linda. I think you could bead on anything! LOL Or anything ;-)could be a bead if it had a hole.
