Grandmother's Beading Box
|
|
Cork-stopped glass tubes of beads. We found a small cardboard box with "Pete - Beads" written on top when cleaning out her effects. She was always a fashion-plate. She made human-hair wigs and fitted them on the Rockettes and other clients. |
|
Her needles. Golden eyes, of course. But what was the blunt needle with two eyes (bottom) used for? |
|
|
|
All beaders are eclectic. The big gold irised beads were taken off a paper. The black beads and spangles in the plastic bag were sold to make a definite project. She even had some artificial pearls. |
|
She would have loved these. Most of her beads were fancy. These are square-holed twisted beads, silvered inside with amber colored glass. They really shimmer. Donation: Miyuki Beads |
