We’re back …and hand-beaded furniture.
Hello Colonistas! We’re finally back from our Christmas and New Year travels. Oh, how we’ve missed you.
I’m on a major beaded furniture kick after seeing some in Elle Decor in the home of Christian Louboutin.
Here are a few pieces I’ve come across in my research.
Beaded peacock bench, Horchow
Beaded African chair from this amazing blog that we’ve just added to our blog roll (in the right-hand column of this page – scroll down).
Not furniture, but heavily beaded – made by the Huichol people of Mexico. from LN-CC.
