Winter in the Woods necklace & watercolor with Gemstone Orphanage's January 2024 orphan.

Today, I'm going to be making a simple bead woven bail for my adoptee, Kirsi. If you can do right-angle weave, you can make this bail. And even if you've never done it before, I'll walk you through it. We'll also be painting a winter landscape using 3 colors of Sennelier L'Aquarelle watercolor: Payne's Grey, Quinacridone Gold, and Forest Green.

The beads and most of the findings for my necklace came in the dress-up pack that accompanied my gemstone pendant in my Gemstone Orphanage subscription. You can see my unboxing here:    • Organizing the January 2024 Gemstone ...

I did not enjoy beading using the little hard-felt bead organizer so I won't be recommending that, I am however happy to recommend the Hobbyworker bead mat that I do a LOT of my beading on & that I switched to after I was finished with the bead weaving part of the video: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B...
