who the heck am I?
what exactly is "cuci cuci coo" supposed to mean?
The title of this blog is a bilingual play on words that probably nobody will ever get, so I may as well just explain it. The cuci cuci part is up to interpretation, either from CUCIre (sew) and CUCInare (cook) or the command "Sew, sew!" You pronounce cuci "COO-chee," so I added the English coo to make it what you say to babies while tickling them: "Coochie coochie coo!"
now where did I see that before?

Lisa,
I cannot tell you how glad I am you chose to follow my tutorial because you have created the perfect necklaces (bracelet)!
They are absolutely fabulous!
I love the colors you've chosen as well as the small beads. Nice effect with those one.
I am sorry to hear that some of the sharpies smudged - mine markers didn't smudge at all maybe because right after painting the seeds I left them aside to dry for a while. As for nail polishing beads - I always stick them on a tooth pick, stick the toothpick into a cork board, Styrofoam board or modeling clay and that way you will not have any trouble polishing the bead. Hope this helps.
Once again, fantastic job!
thanks maya! that's a fabulous idea, to use the toothpick to paint the seeds. i hadn't thought of that. i'll add a little note onto the post with this idea.
actually, i did let my sharpie-d seeds and beads dry before threading them. who knows what happened, but the necklace keeps getting more and more smudged, so now i'm not using it anymore :( but i'm sure that with the polish it'll be lovely!
thanks again! :) lisa
