My Tree Of Life

I had some nice alone time yesterday and was poking around my favorite blogs and remembered this piece. Well not this piece but one like it that I very much admire. It's called The Tree of Life and Pearl over at the Beading Gem's Journal makes them.  I didn't realize that she had made a tutorial on them and when I found it I got out my supplies.

It was a challenge, keeping the circle round was difficult while wrapping the branches. I thought I was doing a horrible job until I was finished. Certainly not perfect but I'm very pleased with it. Probably one of those things that you get better at the more you do it.

Thanks Pearl, here's her tutorial:
