Old Crushed Garden Hose

Old Crushed Garden Hose is made with Toho Triangle Beads in a double, tubular Ndebele. This stitch worked out perfectly, creating that crushed look. The old style nozzle is made with seed beads, worked in tubular peyote. I stitched a ceramic bee just above the nozzle. Dangling from the other side are ceramic and brass bees, antique gold pewter garden implements (watering cans, short handled rakes and shovels, and wheel barrows) and small brass flowers.
