Use Kazuri Beads for Making Wire Vase Pendants!

Did you know you can make lovely wire vase pendants based on the tree of life idea?  And that Kazuri beads are ideal for the vases?  That’s because they have larger holes and allow the passage of several wire lengths.  Check out the new tutorial from one of our Design Team members, Pearl Blay of The Beading Gem.  She also includes links to other tutorials on how to complete cord necklaces.

 

Kazuri Jewelry and Oleana Winter Wear

Oleana is a wonderful Norwegian company who makes the most gorgeous high quality winter wear from natural fibers such as wool and silk.  Paulette, the founder of Kazuri West , admits to owning several of their sweaters!

Some years ago, their fashion photo shoots also showcased Kazuri beaded jewelry. The bold and colorful jewelry stood out on the intricate patterns. What a beautiful combination, don’t you think?

Oleana was founded back in 1992 and have proved since then that it is “still possible to produce textiles of good quality in a high-cost country like Norway” and not resort to off-shore sweatshops.
