Turquoise - emerald PMC earrings - 28 of 366 creative days

28/366

  For the twenty eighth day of 366 creative days I have finished a pair of polymer clay earrings that I started in the turquoise - emerald polymer clay beads on the sixth day. I used some glass beads and silver plated metal beads and a tube as well.
  The wire is actually metallic thread silver,emerald and green, around 0.7mm each and I used 7 for a 4 thread kumihimo braid.

     If they are seen from more than a meter distance the wire is almost invisible and they look like floating under the ear.

Kumihimo 4 thread braid - 27 of 366 creative days

27/366

   For the twenty seventh day I have tried the Kumihimo braid with 4 threads in the colors I choose considering some previous beads I made.

   This seems to be the most easiest and interesting way of doing a rope/braid from the colors you can choose. It can be made with multiple of 4 threads, this one is the simplest, 4 but more patterns can be done with 8, 16, 32 threads as well as different shapes.
    If you want a tutorial about how to make kumihimo braids, I have gathered a lot of patterns and I can help. I also have done the kumiloom disk myself.
