Shisha Mirrors


After a first failed attempt, and another practice success, here is my "shisha mirror". I used the basic edging stitch with some larger beads (maybe size 11) and then the peyote stitch with some delicas. I can see I'm going to have to do more of these as I like how it turned out.

Looks lovely Connie, love the colours. As for my seams I'm just winging it really as I don't have a good knowledge of stitches, spend more time looking at examples on here.

Sorry missed this - the bookmarks are a paper picture and the rest is fabric.
