Luci Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Tiffany, I used to have a huge rose garden. Naturally, the red, pink, and yellow are the most familiar to people, but I had a couple of orange ones that were simply beautiful. My variagated ones with shades of dark pink to cream were also quite stunning. I know nothing about this craft, but is it possible to do them with mixed colors?BTW--those are beautiful and look very labor intensive.

charmiesonline Posted May 6, 2007 Author Share Posted May 6, 2007 Yes, I am working on a white and pink mixed one. So far so good. They take awhile, but are fun to make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charmiesonline Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share Posted May 7, 2007 Long time no see, Broadzilla! How many ya want ?! Do I hear a dozen?Do you think people would want them in a variety of colors, like a light purple or light blue? Personally, I like the blue hyacinth (or half hyacinth. lol) b/c the color is so bold, but I dont know that I would buy one. Any thoughts?

charmiesonline Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share Posted May 7, 2007 Yep, the rose takes about 2.5 hours on average. The hyacinth took me awhile, like 7 hours. But they are gorgeous! I like making them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibiscus Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Pretty! how long have you been beading flowers? Is that the victorian method?...I think that's what it's called, not sure. Nice to have another bead artisan on the board:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could bead a rose in 2.5 hrs:drool: takes me at least 5. Are these life size roses or tea roses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
