I took up a new hobby a couple of months back - making miniature figures (animals mostly, with the occasional little people and flowers) out of little glass seed beads strung on brass wire.

These are gorgeous! And I'm pretty sure that the episode you're looking for is Real Me from S5. :)

THOSE DRAGONS OMG!!!!!!!! They are adorable. Also, I admire your patience. One Christmas when I was making presents because I was poor, I had wire and beads to make ornaments, and...I managed two of them before I was snarly and swearing. The rest of the kit still sits in my craft cabinet. LOL
