beaded christmas gifts

i made beaded tree of life gifts for the family this year. these are my prototypes. i originally thought i'd make pendants for the ladies (as on the left), but working that small was hard for me. so i went larger and made ornaments instead (as on the right).


this is my parents' ornament finished. it's about 3" in diameter. holly & wayne's and jonathan & laure's each have different beads, but i forgot to take photos of those. so you'll just have to believe me that they're all similar and unique at the same time. :)


i did make a pendant for alicia. in blue, of course. :) it's about 1.5" in diameter.
