Laser Beams Simplified

A challenge I made to myself was to create a simple project with just the bright yellow seed beads and white thread. I carried just these items with me on our little road trip to avoid any temptation of adding extra beads. Luckily, I was able to rescue the beads from the green monster who tried to eat them so I could string this week's project.

I made a simple peyote tube toggle and two small brick stitch triangles five beads wide at the base to separate the three strands 16in, 18in, and 20in long. The result is a great summer necklace to wear with your favorite sun dress or beach wear.

You can see how the yellow beads just glow with that white thread behind them. I love to switch up the thread colors behind transparent beads though so I couldn't help myself from stitching a peyote bezel for a bottle cap using a dark orange thread.

The orange thread changed the yellow to match the more yellow orange color on the bottle cap. A perfect color combo. Maybe some green thread next time will pull that laser beam yellow in another direction. Imagine what fun you can have with just a bag of transparent seed beads and a few different thread colors. Until next time, have fun and bead on.
