It began life as a 2.5"x 2" rock which I beaded over using peyote stitch & then the fun began, making tiny sea anemones.. I added lots of embellishment using tiny shells, pearls, drop beads & lots of tiny fringe/stacks.
I have taken pohots from all angles so you can see all the fun details..

O M G!!! FANTASTIC!!! I love it. You did absolutely superbly.
Very nice, Ellen. I like the colors and design a lot! You really love water themes, so do I.

My comment disappeared! Hey! I said it was amazing and I loved the colour choice! And I had a weird word verification - something like sore but!
Love the rock! Now to pull out the piece of wood that I started - doing another of what you taught me!
Cheers, Denise
And most excellent completion of a UFO - love it, great job!
LOVE IT!!!!! But then I did get to spend a weekend with you & get to see you work on the drift wood. Hugs

Looks like the long wait was worth it. It's amazing Ellen!
Thank you girls! I have been feeling a bit down lately, so it is nice to get some encouragement from my beady friends ;)
Denise - I'm looking forward to seeing more sculptural stuff from you ;P
That's so cool!
It's GORGEOUS! I think I still have a rock somewhere I started beading around and never finished. LOL! {HUGS}
Thank you Cyndy & Mel ;)
Ellen, your beaded rock is outstanding! Of course, I have been known to spend hours looking at tide pools & their creatures.
I love the hidden gems in the sea anemones, the tiny shells (especially the one on the front), the pearls, the glass bead that looks like a blob of jellyfish on the back. The colors are wonderful, and I like the way the anemone tentacles start opaque and change to transparent. LOVE it all! Wow ... - Kathy
