Beaded 3D Kitten Cat Charm with tutorial!
Hi all,
I just made these cute little beaded kitten cats few weeks ago and the good news is I also just completed the free tutorial for it at: http://beadjewelrymaking.com/2009/projec t/july.html to share with those who is interested to make one or a few for yourself.
I used the s...mallest beads I have which is size 11/0 and one size smaller for the tiny paws, so the little cats are each standing at only 1 cm tall, they are so tiny that I'm thinking of making a kitten charm bracelet with some of them.
I used typically the right angle weave technique but usually more than four beads weaves.
I used various color combinations to make eight of them, each of different colors, here's more colors of my litter of beaded kitten cats: http://www.beadjewelrymaking.com/2009/be aded_cat.html
Thanks for looking!Read More
