Beaded Butterfly/Dragonfly



beaded butterfly brooch



This is my first attempt at a beaded butterfly brooch (or is it a dragonfly!)   Inspired by Sarah Millsop's demo.   I don't know if I have done it right, but this is my interpretation.!  There is a "how to" on Beader's Companion Blog - but although I did look at it a couple of days ago, it wasn't to hand when I made the brooch! 

I also remade the brooch I made the other week.  I managed to get some sieved brooch backs whilst at Farnbrough, so the original got a make over.  I actually preferred the first one, but it was a tad difficult to undo and do up the clasp, thus the remake.   It does look nice on my navy jacket though!
