Angela ~ Beaded Vest Project

I finally got to do some sewing, as in sewing beads onto a vest.
I'm trying out a new idea to hopefully make some income.  I will be embellishing jean vests and jackets. 
With this vest I used a stencil for the design and painted it in with a copper paint.  Now I am adding multi-color seed beads around the edges.  I really like the Boho designs I am seeing with lots of color and designs from around the world.  I'll be looking for some fabrics and trims as I visit thrift stores.  For now I am using what I have on hand.  This vest already had a southwestern feel so I am just adding to that.  Hopefully people who shop Poshmark will like this when I'm done!

That is going to be really nice when done, and a lot of work!

I plan to price it fairly high since it's also a one of a kind piece.
