Beading for a Cure 2009 - color to add?

So you can see my process, here are pictures of test beads added to the BFAC beads. I am liking the last choice the best so far (but I still want to add gold in the findings, I think).

With black …..copper….gold….gilt-lined cream (click for a larger picture)

It’s still saying ‘jewelry’ to me. I’m not sure what yet!

The copper is a really pretty bead, I agree — but I’m wondering if they’re too close to the bronze? I think I know what I’m going to do. :)

I like the copper, but am anxious to see whatever you come up with!

The stacking will work with all but the cathedral and Swarovski — cool! I mostly use smaller beads than the majority of the kit beads in my beadwork.

I did and it’s AMAZING, so is her current project - awe inspiring.

I don’t think the doll will be difficult (opinion subject to change once I actually start on it), I tend to use the bigger beads for stacked stitches and fringe (hair). A flat bead embroidery piece would be nice too… have to see which way the creative wind blows me when the time comes. Sure is fun looking forward to it!

Take a look at St. Basil’s Cathedral — it’s our colors! Are you going to find it difficult doing the doll with the larger beads? I’ll enjoy seeing what you choose to do…. Thanks.

I’m certainly enjoying watching your process.

I had mine out last night, up WAY past my bedtime - doing much the same thing. I laid out the beads and put several different options next to them. And some fiber as well. I’m doing a doll again this year and am finding the whole process - at this point anyway, terribly relaxing.
