Do you remember this piece?
This is my “Loch Ness Sea Dragon III” Wrap design (inspired by Contemporary Geometric Beadwork). I entered it in the Fire Mountain Gems 2017 Seed Bead Contest and the results have just been announced. Lucky me! This piece won a Bronze Medal Award in the Fashion Accessories category! They’ve sent me a gift certificate, which I’ll use to buy more Delica beads and other goodies!
FMG holds four contests each year: Metal, Creative Clays, Seed Beads, and Swarovski and I always try to have a piece ready to submit by each deadline. I’ll be entering the Metal Contest before it closes in February. In the meantime, I’ve just renewed my listing for the “Loch Ness Sea Dragon III” Wrap beading kit as well as the tutorial. You’ll find both in my Etsy shop. Happy Beading!
