I finished my prototype #beadedapider #bracelet. I added a magnetic clasp as a lovsterclaw clasp was too hard to fasten on my own. She's light weight, really comfortable to wear, and very eye catching. #saholtartist

My friend gave me an idea to make a beaded spider bracelet. Here's where I am after 2 hours of fighting with it and redoing parts that didn't work. Tomorrow I'm going to figure out what I need to do to finish it. I learned a lot. #beadedspider #jewelry #bracelet #saholtartist

I made this beauty today. She would look at home in a mesquite or palo verde tree. #saholtartist

Another satisfied customer. "OMG I AM in LOVE!! I'm keeping these two and gifting the others! Gah! Love them all!" #saholtartist

I just added this custom beaded necklace to the pendant. I matched the pendant colors with beads and pearls. The motif is 3 hearts. The necklace is 25". #saholtartist #jewelry #pendant #beads #beadedjewelry #hamdmade #original #ooak

Here's the second bubble pendant and it's new custom beaded necklace featuring turquoise, olive jade, sesame jasper, an unknown grey stone bead, and glass beads.

I saw an off the shelf version of this today that didn't look good. I made a fancy one with a #beadedspider I already made. It's sort of light weight and is very eye catching. #saholtartist

Here is the pic of the completed purple and green bubble pendant and beaded necklace. The pendant is 3" tall by 2.5" wide. The necklace is 30" long. It has a pearl clasp.

KPop fandom thing.

I made #SKZ #Railway #train ticket bookmarks to give out as my event freebies. There's a small event this weekend that I'm going to with a friend or two. I may even have plans to say "Super Board" like one would say "all aboard!"

Today's little #beadedspider is ready to step out in Sedona. Her tigers eye, Jasper, and faux pearls match the reds in the mountains. #saholtartist

Today's #beadedspider is sporting spring greens with stylish black and silver sparkle. (This one cannot be a magnet due to the shape of the abdomen bead.)

This little #beadedspider was sold before I got her fully put together. She'll be on her way to the good life in California next week. ❤️

I was talking to my hubby about the beaded spiders tonight and asked him if he wanted me to make one for him. He enthusiastically said yes! I waited until he went to bed, then created this blue and silver one for him. He'll wake up to it in the morning. #beadedspider #saholtartist

Aaaaaaaah! So cute! I put magnets on this #beadedspider and stuck it on my fridge! #saholtartist

Today's little #beadedspider is inspired by bright, happy spring colors. #saholtartist

If only beading went this fast. #beadedspider #fastforward #saholtartist

My cousin T asked when and how had I learned to make #beadedspiders . Here's my answer.

I learned this over a decade ago by chance. I went to spend time with a friend at her house, and another friend brought her supplies and taught all of us to make them. It was a spontaneous class. #saholtartist

I had to wait until the end of the day because of responsibilities to make my #beadedspider . She's wearing her spring green finest as she steps out to impress after winter.

Today's #beadedspider is showing her Southwestern roots in turquoise and silver. #saholtartist

Here's this afternoon's #beadedspider . It's the largest I've made so far. She's definitely in charge!
#saholtartist

Jasper, pearls, and gold are the perfect accessories for this large beaded spider. She's serving class and sass! #saholtartist #beadedspiders

All 4 of these beaded spiders are sold! They'll be heading out to their new homes sometime next week. I have a few more I can make while I'm in the mood. If you're interested in any you see coming up, please let me know. They make great gifts!

I'm on a roll today! Here's a black and red beaded spider I made this afternoon. She's dressed for a night out on the town.

Today's beaded spider is looking stylish, strutting out for girls lunch.

This little golden beaded spider decided to hunt today.
Here's today's creature creation. She's made of golden beads, glass, and agate.

Years ago I learned how to make beaded spiders. My brain said it's time to make a few more. Here's my latest little lady. She's made of silver, glass, jasper, and faux pearls. She's so pretty!
