Day 4 Where are my big beads?

After a few minor unpicks and a few major temper tantrums  i came to the conclusion  that life really is much simpler with "normal beads"
these pesky little bleeders are really quite unforgiving  and show up every little mistake, unlike my beloved big beads!! 


One of my lovely friends on FB Mary linked some tutorials for me to watch..... for which I'm very grateful.  (u can see more of Mary's amazing work here http://www.facebook.com/pages/Garnishes/197072357031252)


I am currently  two thirds through the cab.... and  slowly getting there.... had to have a break and console myself with some huge beads in between attempts... I'm not too happy about it, but assume i will improve with practice. 
Here's how its looking now. hoping to be finished by today, i just need to finish off with the pesky's  to pull it all together. 
What do u think?



I have decided to start of my cuff too as the tutorial Mary linked to me has inspired me to carry on with an example of beading around a cab on the actual cuff, so do i take this one apart and start again as i love this colour or  take the easy option and select a new colour cab...hmmm decisions.....?


ps I'm so glad i started the blog as i'm 99% sure i would give up if i hadnt told people i was doing this!
