Sindara mentioned:
<<< I tried my hand at
spice beads as part of my commitment to make 50 bead things for A&S50
challange. >>>
What are these? Are they herbs compressed and handled like rose beads
are made from rose petals? Or are these spice seeds which are drilled/
punched and then strung? Was this a period thing to do or is this
something modern using period spices? If you've written up
documentation for this or an article, I think it might make a good
Florilegium article.
What I do have on rose beads, in the RELIGION section:
rosaries-msg (60K) 1/26/03 Period rosaries and their use.
Making rose
beads.
<<< I also made 2 syrups using spices from my garden. I am
now busily reading recipes trying to decide what I will do for our
upcoming Trial By Fire competition and periodically working on my
bead embroidery family portrait project for the A&S50
challange. >>>
Again, are these bead embroidery projects, either portrait or
something else, a period activity?
beads-msg (48K) 5/ 9/04 Necklaces, beads.
beadwork-msg (40K) 7/13/98 Beadwork on clothing. Bead types,
sources.
Thanks,
Stefan
