October 2007 Beaded 3-D Nemo Clown Fish Project

You can find a variety of Free Arts and Craft Project here, including beaded project and other project. This month's project is a 3-D beaded Clown Fish, just like the character Nemo the Ocellaris Clownfish in the movie Finding Nemo or more professionally know as Amphiprion ocellaris made with Japanese seed beads using the Right Angle Weave technique (RAW). Great as a fashion accessory charm or as a jewelry gift.

The pictorials are illustrated with spaces between beads for a clearer direction, in the actual beading, there should be no spaces.
