I'm trying to make a bracelet based on European flags. Normally this would be a very exciting project I would never leave until I was finished, but I have a problem.
First, I only have six colors. They are, and I follow the specific name on the label, Matte Transparent Green, Matte White, Opaque Orange, Opaque Dark Blue, Matte Opaque Vermillion Red, and Black. (Seriously.) This normally would not be a problem, because I just love to throw money at people for beads, but these are 11/0 Delica beads, and they're strangely difficult to find around here. I got these in a DIFFERENT STATE.
Secondly, and most important, I need flags. Right now I have the Union Jack for the United Kingdom made, but that's it. I need at least eight flags total to make this thing long enough for a bracelet.
So, this is where you guys come in. I'm looking for some input from my friends and watchers. I want the "big" countries of Europe, or at least ones that most people know about and could be easily recognized. I have the Union Jack, and somewhere in this thing I know I'm going to have Italy, Germany, and France. (I need yellow beads.)Possibly Spain and Greece. So, I need to find at least four more flags, or find a way to repeat those. I'd like to have more. Or if your flags were going to be Spain and Greece, just say, "Yeah, Spain and Greece!" and two others.
Basically, if you want to contribute, just send me the names of current European nations you'd like to see. Please consider what their flag looks like when you do. The only thing I ask is that they don't have an overly complicated crest (like Croatia or Malta) or something on them- I had to find a template for the Union Jack, and I'm not experienced enough in this stitch to create really complicated templates of my own yet. Colors won't be such a big problem; I need to get yellow anyway, so I'll just find a way to order that and get whatever others I need then, too.
<3 <3 So, thanks to everyone who contributes! I appreciate your support! <3 <3









i see this as further proof that i am meant to take over the world!
i'm baking cookies!
then i was giving them to my mom and her boyfriend, and i was like
"why can't anyone ever appreciate when i try to do something nice?"
and she was like
"because you usually have an alterior motive."
It's not my fault that i take advantage ofevey situation.

what's your favorite cookie? (esides chocolate chip, that's cliche)
Congrats on being like Napoleon. That must be fun.

what'd you get?
I tend to take that as an omen of ill fortune.
Though otherwise, no. No I don't.
TOYS?!?!?!?!
TOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The hell, man
what has halloween become?
what happened to following ancient celtic traditions and calling them our own
what's this world coming to?
bleh
also
why the hell is everyone bitching about 2012?
i mean, since when did
end of mayan calendar + alligning of planets = end of the world
i mean, i get that the mayans were pretty smart and had a pretty accurate calendar, but didn't ever consider that they could have just gotten SICK OF COUNTING??
our society is run by fear, i swear.
???-
you don't buy into 2012, do you?
And don't abuse the honor system- we were not a happy group when we found those empty. And if they weren't, they were toys. Blech.
I remember my days of innocent festive frolicking
of course mine included robbing every "take one" bowl in sight, but i at least LOOKED innocent
that's all that really matters
i just bought candy
but it isn't the same
my brother has been over for the past 4 days
so no comp. time for me lately
???-
why havn't they made cereal with caffine in it yet? it seems like a logical next step.
And then there might be a party with some people I don't really know that well (save two families, so there's that)- at the very least, if they're in a neighborhood, that'll be TWO for the plunder-- I mean the pickings-- I mean the innocent festive frolicking.
i'm going to chill at my friends house
so i won't be getting any candy.
i'm gonna buy some.
