This week, I decided to try some things I've never done before and some things I'm always comfortable with. Like I wrote last week, it would be easy to stick to certain mediums but I like to try other things too.
One thing I'm not comfortable with is working with beads, especially those tiny seed beads. The piece I made with them is far from perfect but as first attempts go, it's a pretty good one, I think. It was a bit easier to work with the bigger plastic beads though I definitely need some more practice.
I've tried embroidery on paper before but it has been a long time so I thought I'd try a little heart on a mini tag. I'm really happy with this one and will probably do more of those with different colours and sizes.
The rest is mixed media and doodling, my "go-to"s.
