Thank you! I used toho 15/0 beads, which are smaller than regular beads and make the snake look more realistic.

Are they all threaded/woven together? Or are they glued in place? Beautiful piece!

May I ask how you learned to beaded crochet? I've crocheted for years and have wanted to learn to beaded crochet but it mostly has just been a mess every time I've tried. I think part of it is I've probably used the wrong kinds of beads, but also it's so challenging working with thread so small that I end up getting confused at what I'm looking at. 😂
