Wow! This is really fascinating and very artistic! I never imagined using beads or other materials usually used in creating earrings, necklaces and bracelets can be used in sculptures! Thanks for sharing!
wow. this is so cool. never thought that it is made from beads
WOW!!! Amazing & totally brilliant...I have a few photos as well well made not just from seed beads but made from using all kinds of different beads. I would love to use only seed beads but it will cost a lot :) I'll post the pics very soon..
