Happy #PortfolioDay!! It's been a while! 👋🐱🦊 We're Meer(kat) and (maned)Wolf, and we make fantasy and nature-inspired sculptures out of beads and wires! We won't be posting as often like we used to, but we're still alive and making art 👍 For all social links: meerwolfrenders.carrd.co

“Abundance” can be beaded as pendant, brooch or ornament. The tutorial is now on my YouTube channel. Note that this one is not really suitable for beginner beaders, sorry. It’s a bit of a challenge!

A kind shopkeeper in Vietnam taught me how to make flower rings. I've since made lots of them, and I think I can say that it'll always be one of my favourite designs. #Art #Beading #Beadwork #Crafts #Crystals #CrystalsBySwarovski #Flower #Jewellery #Rings

Frost Flower Earrings which look just as nice on the back as on the front. This design uses Toho 8/0 demi rounds to achieve the lacy snow effect. The new YouTube tutorial is now available on my channel. Happy beading! #beading #beads #jewelry
