New Purchase



Tang Baby, on etsy, occasionally makes these great felted wool beads. I bought two test tubes full of some beautiful colors - why? I have no idea! I liked them, so I bought them! Now I'll have to make a mixed media something out of them!

I did something really exciting last night - I moved all my beading materials off the floor of my bedroom onto/into a desk that my parents gave me! They had a computer desk they weren't going to use anymore, and now it is in my spare bedroom and is going to serve as my beading table! YAY! The kids said, "there's a big empty space in your bedroom - what was there before?" ALL my beading stuff, in boxes and bags. Can't wait to be able to use things and be able to see them too!

I am surprised that you did not have a spot to bead, since you have your own lampwork studio! Good thing you got that desk ;)
Great beads! I think I will have to look out for the winter issue of Stringing now too, thanks Lorelei :)

If not for the colours and texture alone, I would buy these just for the test tube packaging. And good on ya for setting up your own beading space. Can't wait too see what comes out of there!
Great colors...I like the fact they are a solid color, a great addition to any bead stash!

Enjoy your beading table..
Cheers

Bead Soup Blog Party!

Welcome to the 3rd Bead Soup Blog Party! What is a Bead Soup Blog Party? Each beader was paired up with another jewelry designer and tasked with sending the following: ~ A focal ~ A special clasp (not just a lobster claw) ~ Some coordinating spacers or beads Using the focal and the clasp was mandatory, but we could use anything from our own stash to round out the rest, and choose to use the coordinating beads or not. You may recall my partner was Margot Potter ; click this link to see the blog post I wrote of what she sent me! Here's what I made! Dangly earrings! Come see what the rest of us made! 1. Lori Anderson, Pretty Things 2. Kitty Durmaj, Perles and Life 3. Michelle Heim, Life In the Bead Lane 4. Lisa Petrillo, Lucid Moon Studio 5. Anitra Gordy, Leelu Creations 6.

Puppies!

I just had to include this photo of my friend Beth's new puppies. They are 11 week old Jack Russell Terriers. The smaller one is the runt of the litter, but too cute. They are Libby and Lucy!!! Click on the photo to see them bigger!

Another quick post!

I know, I'm on a roll today. Even though I got a late start, I've made beads, made posts, done some scrabble tiles, now I have to fold some laundry and think about dinner. Just wanted to post a photo and link to the ebay auction of mine that started last night - I like the beads, they have a southwest feel and would make a fantastic focal piece in a bracelet, or a whole bracelet too! You can click on them to go to the auction!
