Sometimes, seeing beads gives some crazy unexpected ideas. Recently, while shopping, I have found big frosty beads. As soon as I saw them, I thought: «They would be great as prayer beads or in a rosary». I wasn,t affraid of their big shape. Usually, I am not attracted by big beads. I bought them anyway. I put them on a macrame cord with some knots between them. It gives this result:
I must admit that my knotting is in need of practice. I didn't space the knot as tight to the beads as I would had liked to. Otherwhise, I think I don't think to add some knot's caps. If I could fine some in silver, maybe I would be tempted to add them to hide the knots. Maybe it will also hide the impefection in the uneven knot spacing. It still to be seens. I also wonder if I could have chosen another colouir for the macrame cord. Would have been wise to go for a bold statements and contrast with the milky beads? Still unsure of the answer. I think I am still unsure when it comes to colours. It is another weak part that I need to work on.
I had many beads and I wanted to use them all. So, it is why I din't do any macrame knots on this project. I didn't wanted to add lenght to the project. It is always fun when I know what I want to do or not with a project. It always ease thing out. The process is also easier and quicker. No uncertainty. No contemplating two options without unclear decision to make.
