Vintage lace and copper beads

Trial and error..always trying something new. This was a fragile piece of lace..so I  again used a wired ribbon to give the lace support. ....supported it enough to allow me to bead the lace with copper beads (I made the copper beads from tubing). I wrapped the lace around the wire/pearls and threaded wire, ribbon, and lace through each copper bead.








It got too complicated at the end...tried to get too cleaver...
didn't work.....needed to simplify.

So I took it apart and tried again...  Much nicer this try!!!!!
