BUSY GIRL....

I'm back in show mode w/ 2 shows coming up in the later part of March & I just realized that I haven't shared much of anything w/ you lately! I post pictures of things I've made or am working on on Facebook, so if you're not already "liking" me over there, go do it! :o) 

Just thought I'd show you what I've been up to....

As you can see... I've been focusing on hearts & large hole beads. The beads are made to fit european style charm bead bracelets. I debuted my new big hole bracelet & necklace in my Etsy shop @ the beginning of February. The necklace is pretty slick, as it can be worn long or choker length... looks great w/ a stack of big hole beads. Check them out!

Till next time...

BEAD SOUP PARTY...Reveal happens tomorrow, Feb. 26th

Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is the day that all of us Bead Soup Party participants will be revealing what we created from the bead soup that we received from our party partners!

Lori Anderson, our fabulous party hostess, will have the participants listed on a new post tomorrow... check it out & be sure to visit all of the websites & see all of the pieces that were created. I can't wait to see my party partner, Jessreveal!

Here's a teeny tiny little tease for you from me.....
Check back tomorrow for the big reveal!
Till then...

BEAD SOUP UPDATE...

I've been so busy this past week that I haven't taken the time to sit down & write about what I received from Jess Italia Lincoln!! Look how pretty the packaging is. Beautiful dyed fabric strips tying the package together... 
...sweet green organza pouches...
it was a joy just opening each pouch & exploring what goodies were inside! 
She sent a beautiful pendant that she made & a toggle made up of a few of Vintaj's new Arte Metal components that she altered...she even stamped "REFLECT" on the toggle's key/bar! Just sweet. 
She also included a bunch of Vintaj findings... bead caps & beads from both of their lines, chains, too... as well as pearls, sweet little chrysoprase rondelles, some czech glass flowers & leaves, faceted stones, a beautiful silk ribbon, the list goes on. 
The colors are absolutely beautiful...earthy, I'm really looking forward to working w/ it all. 

Thank you, Jess! I just love it all!!
