Bead Doodling
Noun:
A silly name for freeform bead embroidery.
Verb:
Relaxing, and using bead embroidery to "draw" patterns on a whim... with emphasis placed on simply "going with the flow" instead of completing a pre-determined pattern.
Background:
Today has been an insanely productive day on the jewelry front.
So much so, in fact, that I needed to just do something random and silly and, well, unimportant.
And so I doodled.
More specifically, I added that bright blue swirl on the bead embroidery piece pictured above. ...And it was lovely. No pressure, no need for perfection--something to just create and enjoy.
With all of the serious beading that I've been doing, and the incredible outpouring of creativity that I have been experiencing these last few weeks, I think I foresee much more bead doodling in my future.
