This handmade mommy and baby bird was inspired by the joy of motherhood. This one-of-a-kind beaded sculpture would make a perfect gift for any mother or mother-to-be.
The Mommy and Baby Bird rest in a handmade, copper wire, nest accented with purple and green glass beads. Tiny leaves made from green seed beads and thin copper wire are woven all around the nest. The Mother Bird is completely covered in size 11 and size 8 glass seed beads. Each bead was glued in place one at a time with tweezers. She has a pink heart on her chest to represent her love, with a pink glass rhinestone in the center. The Baby Bird is also completely covered in size 11 and 8 glass seed beads to match the Mother Bird.

This is the beginning of the Beaded Evening Bag I'm making. So far, it features Vintage Swarovski Crystal Rivolis in Bermuda Blue, and a thick Dichroic Cabochon by my friend Audra Goetz of Pane in the Glass. Sloooooooowwwwww going. I'll post more when I get a chance of it.
One of my first Bead Embroidery projects way back when. (circa 2004). I used an iron-on t-shirt transfer with a picture my friend drew of a dragonfly and beaded over it. I'm glad it worked because I can't draw very well!
