Finally finished my Russian beaded needle case which I offered a sneak peek before!! This needle case is based on a project made by SianNolan with some slight modifications. SianNolan's doll looks blissfully asleep, but I wanted my doll to look alert and happy so I made her eyes curve upwards instead of downwards.
When I reached the middle of this project, it felt like it would never end T.T......Especially when I had to undo some of my mistakes.
Plus, I had to make 2 extra trips to the local bead shop because I bought the wrong colour beads. And I was shocked to find out that the gold miyuki delica beads cost $10 for 4grams!?
But, I bit the bullet and bought the gold beads. I decided that I might as well buy the best beads since I am spending so much time on this project and I will keep this needle case for many years to come. It turned out to be worth it because the gold beads provide such an attractive contrast against the other beads.
