Bonsai


Beaded Bonsai trees are handcrafted with quality seed beads and fine wire, then sculpted into various shapes or forms. Each piece takes on it's own distinct personality and characteristics.

This tree was given to me by my late grandmother. She would create a variety of different trees from weeping willows to cherry blosom trees. At Christmas, she woud create beautiful poinsettia bonsai trees. Each tree would painstakingly take weeks to complete. She used to display hers in a glass curio cabinet and when the sun or cabinet lights would illuminate them, they would sparkle and shine.

Mags.
