I have load of blue seed beads so it was pretty easy to match these beautiful pips with some dark blue delicas and seed beads. This one isn't going to be a brooch.
Instead I added a jump ring to the back so I can make it into a necklace.
I then made these little flowers. 6 of the pip beads fit perfectly together in a circle to form a bloom and I added a little clear seed bead in the centre of each. I think I'll make a couple more of them and use them to flank the main flower.
I'm afraid this isn't the last you'll see of pip bead flowers, I used all three rivolis...
I'd also like to say that I've had the most hectic couple of weeks at work, including working into the evening, so I haven't been visiting many blogs and I don't think I've commented on any. I hope to catch up at some point soon, so don't think I've abandoned you!

Love those little pip bead flowers, how big are they - too big for earrings?

I will be interested to see how the necklace turns out!
We all understand about life getting in the way of other activities, so not to worry!
So pretty, I love the oily blue colour
Lovely flowers! The colors are great :D
Oh I thought too, that those little flowers would be lovely as earrings :D That blue is gorgeous!
Don't worry about blog commenting (or visiting, even) - sometimes there just isn't enough time in the day to get everything internet done - just take care of YOU :)
These are really sweet! I adore those smaller flowers and the style of the bigger one is really pretty.
I love those little flowers
You are not alone in the not making it round to comment on blogs lately,I have been staying off the computer a lot lately. So not much commenting from me lately! Your latest beading adventure has turned out quite lovely,those flowers would also make nice matching earrings too.
