>Seed Bead Bricks

>

I appreciate your comments on my last post! As you can see, I finally finished beading the East side of the South façade of my felt White House. So far, I have used very close to one whole hank of size 11 Czech glass opaque white seed beads, and about 2/3 hank clear seed beads. Those who guessed my beading method were correct. I switched my bead count from 10 white-5 clear to 5 white-10 clear, but the reason I did that was rather unclear at the time. It's interesting that some thought this technique made the seed beads look like bricks!

Now that I look at it, they really do look like bricks! Cool. :D
