Mellow Yellow; bead and wire tree sculpture
The first of the rainbow inspired trees (not finished them all yet - still in progress) and starting it off with yellow!
Used some gorgeous frosted yellow seed beads in three different sizes (11, 8 and 6 for anyone who knows their seed beads) and twysted it together with antique bronze coloured copper wire, then mounted to a tiger eye crystal base which I've fixed some black felt pads to the base of for extra stability as being a natural crystal, it's not always perfectly flat on the bottom.
Each tree I'm making in this series uses a slightly different branch pattern. Not really on purpose; as with many things I'm making it up as I go!
Sits at 10 cms / 4 inches in height (including base)
Mellow Yellow
Size: Height 10cms x Width 7.6cms / 4 x 3 inches
Materials: Frosted glass seed beads, antique bronze coloured tarnish resistant copper wire, tiger eye crystal, adhesive, black felt pads
Care instructions: For ornamental use only. Copper wire is soft and can be bent easily - branches can be adjusted but bending back and forth repeatedly can cause the wire to weaken and it may snap.
