A short vacation in Tiberius, by the Lake of Galilee

Hello dear readers,

We are back from our wonderful stay by the lake.  It was great to see the lake filled up, after a winter with bountiful rains.  The last few years were dry and the lake regressed leaving a wide shore.

It was not so good for finding shells.  Before, with the regression of the water,  quantities of shells were exposed. Now we have to dive to find them.

We stayed in  a boutique hotel which a little less than two centuries ago was a Scott church hospital run by missioners. Here are some photos of the hotel buildings built with basalt local stones.

                                       

I promised to show you some of the gifts I received, beginning  with my grand daughters gift.  A book.
One of the funniests. I'm reading and giggling all the way.  It was translated from Swedish to Hebrew.  Written by Jonas Jonasson and called "A one hundred years old man who climbed out of the window and disappeared". ( Lil, did you read it?) Here is a picture of the book's cover which speaks for itself.
The book was translated to many languages.

Will show more gifts tomorrow.

I wish you a wonderful weekend with my blessings

Spiritual Gem, the Collection Subject of This Year (Mercedes Yang)

Escaping the encirclement and suppression of handbags and fashion, which can give psychological satisfaction as well as support value appreciation, this must be the topic of this year's. So it's really the jewelry and watches! But you can't have your cake and eat it, so where are they going? Jewelry is silent, but it is the most that can touch our heart; wrist watch is silent, but it's the most that can detect our heart.

Women's material desire is the gap that we can't fill in. If we lack those desires, the economy of world will reverse for many years. It is definitely the woman's critical eye which supports the luxury goods empire working well. What's more, the fickle mind that stimulates designers' creates neurons. About how to spend a small part of dividends at the end of the year such as neither more nor less than one hundred thousand, what the hell are you going to choose? Count about your handbags and did not even pick the tags on the forgotten lonely dress, you have too much! Go to the jewelry boxes wholesale! Then, choose a spiritual gem!

Jewelry and watches is a pair of twins, people have been keen to discuss them and compare them. The reason why it can attracts so many people has a lot, both have many in common on the advantage: precious materials, innovative design, excelsior craft and indelible time accumulation. Their differences appear to be few, but actually have a lot to think of it. The beauty of jewelry is the spiritual of it. Imaging that in the gray cubicle of the city, do the same work in the same office, even breathing sound will be the same, inadvertently, fingers, ears, neck and a flutter of bright snaps will let you out of the drab space. The spiritual light is can't be copied.

Dame Elizabeth Taylor, have eight marriages. She said, "I almost forgot my past glory; only remember that I loved jewelry and the emotional differences behind them." So what kind of jewelry can you buy with one hundred thousand Yuan? The first to think that I'm afraid it is the diamond, diamond is the best friend of woman's; enduring charm can let time stop. Marilyn Monroe once humming chanting: "Women grow old, men change the heart, and only the stone will never deformation". Compare to the pigeon egg which within sight but beyond reach, the charm of carat diamond is the best. Many people choose to purchase jewelry by leaving the country, with one hundred thousand Yuan, you can buy trusted brands - carat, what's more, it will have 20% rebate! Even if you are traditional person, love gold, jade, but don't love diamonds, with the money, you also can purchase good gems. The charm of the pearl is not the value of itself, but Its rare and non-renewable. Now, the investment of the jewelry increase on the rise.

But how to collect the jewelry? The steps as the followings:

1.Grasp the appraisal link. As the jewelry price is expensive, we need to have a appraisal in high credibility of formal jewelry stores and get the diamond certificates. Or directly commissioned factory to customizing is ideal collection channel.

2.Don't keen on gaining petty advantages of purchasing. Due to defective discount jewelry, because their jewelry value-added features have been lost. We can participate in the jewelry auction bidding; this is a place for high-end jewelry circulation more concentrated.

3.Know the market price. Jewelry price will continuously change with the market supply and demand, so collect gems have a certain risk; we need to grasp the information in time.

4.Gem stones must be carefully custody in order to prevent unnecessary loss.

The Creator’s Necklace

A beader’s repertoire is constantly growing, changing, and evolving. We try new techniques and materials, new combinations of color and pattern, always learning something new about ourselves as we go. But when we do find a groove, or a set of methods that works for us, it’s bliss. That’s why it was incredibly satisfying to sit down to create a necklace for the Egyptian creator god, and know exactly where it would lead.

My latest subject was Atum, the first deity in the Egyptian pantheon. He created the sibling couple Shu and Tefnut, the gods of air and moisture, and was sometimes represented as a snake. He also had a menagerie of sacred animals, including the bull, lion, mongoose, lizard, and ape. I wanted to incorporate all of these traits into a single design, so I started by choosing the beads to see what my options were for construction. Then everything fell into place.

For the bull, I chose some simple natural bone rounds. For the mongoose, Rudraksha prayer beads. Green buri nuts would be perfect for the lizard, and large black druks for the ape. Finally, I selected the very few amber tortoiseshell druks in my stash to represent the lion. To back up these accents, I gathered up two shades of green 8/o seed beads for the waters of Nun (as well as the Nile) from which Atum emerged. Two misty shades of blue would go perfectly with the rest of the palette, and represent Shu and Tefnut.

I used the seed beads to create a snake-inspired twisted herringbone rope, then added a handful of each animal accent in a spray of fringe. At first I wasn’t sure exactly how to pattern the fringe, until I remembered how well Apep’s necklace turned out with stacks of beads at the ends. I used the bone beads in each strand, and finished them with a different accent, saving the smaller beads for the shorter strands. It was a pleasure to use a favorite design without hesitation, and it came out perfectly.

Do you have a favorite style or technique that you return to often?

The Gilded Lady

A couple of months ago I saw a great blog at Hospitality Designs (metallic paint project ) using Martha Stewart Golden Pearl paint. I immediately knew I had to use this on something. I found a waterfall highboy dresser and vanity that were in pretty bad shape that I thought might work, so off to Home Depot I went for my paint. On the way home I stopped at a yard sale and found this little skirted vanity table from the 1940's or 1950's. Doesn't she have beautiful legs? I knew she would be my golden pearl project.

Bead Color Ideas: Job’s Tears

One of my favorite things about working with natural beads - apart from their sustainable qualities - is the way that they can blend into almost any style or color palette. Unless dyed, natural beads have wonderful neutral colors that go with anything, and they have a unique ability to work with modern, minimalist, and chic styles with the same ease as they do with other natural and organic elements.

This month I went on the hunt for the perfect bead colors to pair with Job’s tears. These pretty little beads are made from Lagrima de San Pedro seeds found in Ecuador, and look quite a bit like pussy willows, but without the fuzz. They are incredibly lightweight, making them perfect for fringe, which also allows them to make pretty music when they sway.

I particularly like the soft pastel gray of Job’s tears, which often appears to be hiding another color beneath. To accentuate this mysterious natural finish, I started with some equally soft and misty colors, with a hint of sweetness. Tropical Honey includes wisteria lined crystal seed beads, and some dark transparent topaz.

To see how these natural beads would stand up to a more modern design, I combined two stark opaque colors that could be either chic or tribal, depending on the design. Shiny jet black and pepper red provide a great backdrop for the gray in Dancing Shoes. This palette really flatters the Job’s tears, while playing down their texture a bit.

And finally, I couldn’t end without pairing beads from the rainforest with exciting tropical colors. The turquoise blue and opaque pale green seed beads are very lively, and allow the Job’s tears to remain cool, like a stretch of white sand. Perhaps we’ll call this palette Laughing Mermaid.

Do you like to combine natural beads with organic elements, or contrasting styles?

Make Your Earrings Shine with Diamond Earring Jackets (JuliaLockhart)

Someday, hopefully, you will win the lottery. Scads of money piled all over your house, giving you the opportunity to spend it willy-nilly on every little whim that comes to your mind. Until then, though, you have a budget you need to adhere to, and as much as you'd like to, you can't buy everything you want. But you still want to look your best every time you go out, and part of that is wanting to make sure your jewelry sparkles and shines. I'm here to tell you that you can do that and it will cost a fraction of what you might think. I am talking about diamond earring jackets.

Look through your jewelry collection. You have owned the same earrings for quite some time. Maybe you should replace some of them with new pieces. The problem is that you can't afford to go out and buy a whole new collection. And, more than likely, some of those pieces have sentimental value anyway and you don't want to replace them. But still, you want to do something new, something different. Certainly there is a way to make the "same old" thing exciting again, like the first time you ever wore them. This is where the diamond earring jackets come into play.

When you purchase some affordable diamond earring jackets, you give new life to the earrings that you have had for years. Designed to fit around the earrings you currently own, these earring jackets compliment the original design of the earrings while at the same time giving them a whole new look. Many people will look at them and think that you have bought a whole new line of jewelry, but you will know the truth. Those are still the "same old" earrings that you have always loved, but only now they have an added sparkle and shine. Best of all, you can opt to add the jacket or not, so it is like having two pairs of earrings.

Diamond earring jackets come in all kinds of different styles. Some are designed to serve as a ring around the original earring while others hang down below them, giving an added dimension to the earring that you are wearing. Whatever the look is that you are going for, the style that matches your personality, diamond earring jackets are the smartest and most cost effective way to enhance your current jewelry collection and make it seem brand new.

Julia Lockhart is a writer with a penchant for wedding bands. She prides herself in providing readers with the knowledge they need to make smart and informed purchases when it comes to buying Diamond Earring Jackets.

Sun Disk Pendant

Throughout all the beading challenges I‘ve done, there have been many projects that required lots of planning and tweaking to get the right blend of inspiration and technique. Once in awhile, a project comes along that’s quite simply a no-brainer. The techniques needed to achieve a certain look are ready and waiting to be unleashed.

So it went with the latest Egyptian gods piece. I needed a way to capture the image of Akhenaten’s Aten - a sun disk with rays of light ending in hands. This is the way that the sun god was always depicted during his brief time as the one true god, with cupped hands shown in profile, sometimes holding an ankh for the king.

I didn’t have to look far for the perfect stitches to get this look. Circular brick stitch and branch fringe would do the trick. All I needed to decide on was a palette. I gathered up several shades of transparent and lined reds for the sun disk. For the necklace straps, I also added some bone white and black.

I think the simplicity of this necklace is perfect for the short lived cult of Aten. My only regret is that I didn’t have any golden yellow to use in place of the bone white, but I’m still really pleased with how the St. Petersburg chain straps turned out.

A visit to Beit Gemal Convent

Today was quite a warm but othrwise, nice and bright day.  Nilly, my daugter took her friend Heda and me to visit the Beit Gemal Abbey situated on the way to Jeusalem.

We had a nice welcome by the nuns who knew Heda personally.  Heda is  a professional photographer who several years ago exhibited her work at the convent.  Several of her beautiful photographs still hang in the convent' lobby.

We were taken along to see parts of this beautiful convent. I was thrilled to see a large diorama displaying
scene from the Old and New Testaments.

Nilly took lots of photos, a few I will share with you.

The entrance, hidden by trees.

The lobby or visiors room, with Heda's photographs on the wall.

How to Cap and Finish Herringbone Ropes

When it comes to creating beadwork jewelry, it’s the little details that can make or break a piece. Finishing designs - adding fringe, clasps, and other components - is just as important as the main beadwork stitches, color choices, and focal elements that make up a whole piece.

Recently a reader asked about my finishing technique for herringbone ropes. I use tubular herringbone for necklace and bracelets quite often, and with a metal-free approach, adding clasps requires a little extra stitching. This is the most common technique that I use to finish a rope with a smooth transition to a button or toggle clasp.

How to Cap a Herringbone Rope with a Round Bead

Druks are my favorite beads to use at the ends of a rope, but you can use other beads that match the rest of your design, so long as they can handle multiple thread passes. Freshwater pearls and crystals aren’t recommended, but just about anything else goes. You could also skip the picot embellishment and use disks or other bead shapes that cover the ends of the rope.

Start by weaving a dummy round at the end of your herringbone rope to connect the final stitches together - weave through the top row as usual, without picking up any beads. Exit from the top of the rope, and pick up 3 seed beads in the same size as your main beadwork. They can be matching, or use contrasting colors for extra interest.

Stitch down through the next bead in the rope end, and pull snug to form a picot. Repeat all the way around the tube until each pair of herringbone columns is covered with a picot.

Stitch down about a centimeter into the rope and exit through a bead. Pull your thread snug, then needle into the rope, under the beadwork threads, and exit from the center of the tube. Do not pass through any beads, and be sure not to snag any threads with your needle.

Pick up your cap bead, and slide it down to the beadwork, testing the fit. It should not be small enough to slip inside the rope, and not so large that it doesn’t fit neatly into the picots.

Add your clasp beads as desired, and pass back through the cap bead, and into the center of the rope. Exit between two herringbone beads, a few rows down. Pull snug, then check the fit and length of your clasp to make sure you’re happy with the work before you continue.

Stitch down through a few beads in one herringbone column to secure the thread. Stitch up through the following column, leaving a little space between your stitch and the end of the rope, then pull snug. Pass through the center of the rope and stitch around your clasp again to strengthen. Stitch down into the rope, and secure the thread within the herringbone rope again.

Stitch up through the beadwork, and exit from the picot ring at the end of the rope. Weave through the picots again with a dummy herringbone stitch to tighten them around your cap bead. Add a single seed bead between each picot if desired - this gives a pretty crown shape to the embellishment.

When you’re happy with the cap, weave in your thread and trim, then embellish the other end of the rope.

Diamond rings with a masculine touch (singhania gautam)

In general, rings stand for a person's love and commitment towards the other person to whom it has been presented. Both women and men love to wear rings just like other accessories they wear on day to day basis. The demand is so huge that jewellery stores with online or offline presence are prepared to cater the needs by coming up with different types and designs. It is a myth that women customer base demanding for rings is more. Actually, rings are one of the popular jewellery accessories sported by men, which means men customer base for rings is huge as well. Earlier men thought that jewellery items were exclusive to women and hence preferred rings that were simple yet big in size. They did not give much importance to the pattern of the ring but only to its price to flaunt their wealth and power. But, it is not the case now as men of today like to wear diamond rings of various styles with or without embellishments.

Jewellers acknowledging this change in behavior are continuously striving hard to create designs that look magnificent and masculine. Diamond rings are given a masculine touch by making the bands broad and thick and by incorporating a big size diamond if it is going to be a solitaire ring by incorporating two or more diamonds all over the base. Innovation has led to the combination of two or three tone metals like yellow, rose and white gold to give the ring a distinctive look. Most often, men opt to choose black diamond rings, hematite or turquoise rings. There are also gemstone rings for those who believe in the zodiac signs.

When it comes to selecting and buying rings, you need to consider various factors. Lifestyle is one of the major factors that determine the purchase. The ring setting needs to be double checked, especially if the person who is going to wear the ring makes use of his hands more than any other part of the body. The ring setting should be strong enough that the diamond would not fall from it. The band should also be thick and strong. Personality and preferences of the person matters a lot as ring is an accessory that is worn daily. The choice depends on his personality type most often. For instance, a flashy ring with colorful gemstones would be chosen by men in show business while a subtle design would be chosen by men working in a corporate setup. Processing ...

May Bead Stash Favorites

Most beaders have a go-to bead – a material that they can’t live without, and which usually defines their work. While these may be considered a "favorite", the beads that tickle our creative sides most can change with every new addition to the bead stash. The favorite du jour is a bead that makes us eager to sit down at the workbench, yearn to try new techniques, or sometimes we just want to horde them forever.

I want to share with you my top three favorite beads of the month. Every time I go into the cupboard to grab my bead tray, I think of them and look forward to finding just the right project to use them in.

Although I would say that 11/o seed beads are my standard fare, I still find that some new beads are always in my thoughts - at least until the next thing comes along. The rich colors and pretty finishes of seed beads are even more inspiring than the stitch possibilities. Right now my favorite seed beads are opaque olive green Czechs from Shipwreck Beads. Never mind that they’re on a hank, which makes all beads seem tastier; this color is both earthy and vibrant, and I can’t wait to see how it plays with other colors.

If I didn’t have to save most of my bead budget to support my seed bead habit, I would probably spend an awful lot on unique glass accents. I picked up these amazing little vintage Egyptian cabochons on Artfire as a treat. Although the cobalt blue and cherry red are perfect for my favorite palettes, it was the bright green patina that really sealed the deal. Being so tiny at just 16mm, these cabs are ideal for bead embroidered pendants - I can add a lot more rounds of seed beads without the piece getting outrageously large.

Last but certainly not least, I’ve been hording two strands of striped glass trade beads from Happy Mango Beads for a couple of weeks. They are just so beady, I don’t even know where to begin. There’s always something irresistible about a striped seed bead, but the charming irregularity of these (along with the color and history) makes them almost too precious. I’ve been dying to make a new chevron collar with stripy bead accents – I’m just waiting for the magpie feeling to wear off so that I can bear to part with a few of these beads.

What kinds of beads have been calling to you lately?
