This was at the kit car show, in a little craft tent:
I assume they have a machine that loads the beads onto the wire?! Otherwise, that would be a *little* time consuming... I made some trees with beads and wire once, if I find them I'll post a pic - they're much easier to make than these!
I also took a close up of an ant, but unfortunately I'm inept, so it hasn't come out very well

My bead loom is still in its packet unused, might be good for using paper beads.

Oooh that reminds me - I knew I had to tell you something Jerry! There's a garden ornaments place on the way to my mum and dad's and they sell VAST rusted metal cockerels - they must be at least 1m tall!
