I'm always in for a giveaway! I really love the headpins, so that'd be my fave thing. But, when it comes to the beads, I think pairs are what come to mind the most...since they're so light, they're perfect for earrings.
Jen
p.s. there are some of your glass beads in my post from last night. :)

I love pairs, since I make a lot of earrings as gifts. I also like brighter colors, like that blue bead sitting in the back. Beautiful!

I love them! You do such a wonderful job on them. I personally think it would be good to do earring pairs... just a thought!

Cool giveaway!! These beads are just lovely. I think I would go for medium sized beads - 10-12 mm. I prefer brighter colors in enameled beads but that's just me.

Hey, I love your beads! In big beads I'd be looking for coordinating beads but not exact matches and pairs for earrings. Thanks!

Loving your enamel beads! I love that you have made some to match the resin pendants you made - that was a nice little surprise in the mail :o)

I would like more different shapes - like the kinda flat round one that I've seen in a couple of listings. Round is cool, but sometimes I like a little bit of a "funky" shape :o)

Thanks for having the giveaway- they're gorgeous! I lean toward smaller beads but the headpins are fantastic too!

Pairs for earrings are nice. It would be neat to have a mixture of your beads--pendant, glass and enamel to put together. CJ

Thanks for the giveaway. I like the headpins too. The multi-colored sets are also great.

Love the giveaway, thanks! I like pairs for earrings or adding a statement to a necklace. I like multiple colors to give the colors depth.

Hi Sue, Great giveaway! I love them all but I think 4 small pairs in contrasting colors would make a nice necklace.I see a design in my head. Check out my site this weekend. Going home for 2 weeks I have lots of new goodies to share.

Hey Sue! I love your enameled beads. I've not played with enameled beads before, so I'm not entirely sure what my preference would be. :)

Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway! Have a terrific weekend!

Beautiful beads! What a wonderful giveaway. I guess for me, color is always what I seem to look for first. Unless I am looking for pairs. Or I need a specific size. How's that for a helpful response!!!:D Hee Hee. I crack myself up sometimes. Color, Sue. Thanks for a fun opportunity here! Have a great day!

Sue, you know what I would love are beads in a roundel shape. No one makes them that I know of, in different sizes would be really great.

I love the mixtures of colors. I like it if they come in pairs, in case an earring emergency arises, but I am just as likely to break them up and use them as singles as well, so an all mismatched batch would suit me just fine! I love all the soft colors of the enamels. But how amp'd can you go with the colors? I am thinking really bright! Enjoy the day! Erin

I think it would be nice to have one large and two med. to make into a bracelet.

Nice give away.

Mixed colour sets. Also mixed sizes and maybe mixed shapes. Thanks for the giveaway chance!

This is my second try at trying to win enameled beads. Failed miserably the first time. I'm going to keep trying until I get some. And probably buy some too. That's always exciting, getting those packages. Feels like Christmas! and then you remember you paid for them yourself. I think I would like an assortment of sizes and colors for my first experiment with enameled beads--I would put them all in one piece! Like a necklace.

I'm generally a blue/green kinda girl, but I'd just be happy to win and will enjoy whatever you send if I'm that lucky!

The colors of those beads are so pretty. I was thinking it would be cool to have some enameled leaves.

Beautiful beads!!! And how GENEROUS!!! I like all sizes. Usually like to have a small matching pair for earrings, then some larger and smaller to put in a matching necklace and/or bracelet. I'm not so much matchy-matchy myself, but a lot of my customers like to have a full set.

I have to go with the smaller blue, green, and brown, also, but turquoise and purple are usually my first choices. I'll appreciate ANY color, any time!

I love the variety and earthiness of these. I'm not really into anything too bright and flashy so colors like the ones in the give away are perfect!!

Oh girl, sign me up! I've seen your enameled beads in person and that are scrumptious!

Sue, I love your enamelled beads but also love your components too, the enamelled birds and butterflies.. The headpins are so versatile as well. Thanks for your giveaway..

Hi Sue! Thanks for having this wonderful giveaway. I like pairs because I like making earrings for all my friends. Pastel colors would be pretty for the Summer months.

Bead Soup Blog Party!

Today is the day of the big Bead Soup Blog Party reveal! Lori Anderson, the wonderful host of this event, reported that there are 362 participants this year! That's a lot of blogs to look at. I will try my best to get to each and every one, but it may take weeks! My partner was Laura Zeiner from Stick Lizard Designs . She has a lot of talent, that girl. If you recall in my previous post , she sent me these beads: And this is what I made: I love love love the focal she sent me. It's gorgeous! The lack of sun here in Pittsburgh does nothing for this rock! The colors and crystals are beautiful! I had no idea what to do with it, though, and I pondered for quite a while. I decided to make links with 18 gauge copper wire and think I did an ok job at it. I'm sure there are some better ways to do this, and I'd love to hear about them. I'm just really starting to get into the world of wire and so my skills aren't that great. In any event, I made some beady links

The Tacky Earring Blog Hop

Diana Ptaszynski had a great idea, instead of a Tacky Christmas Sweater blog hop, a Tacky Holiday Earring blog hop! I was on it.  I had ideas right away.  I had so many I had to control myself.  You can buy these for $15 each, too!  Here we go! I found these awesome wreaths in the miniature Christmas section in Michaels, and they go perfectly with silver and copper colored plastic beads! These trees were found in Michaels, on an end-cap - I assume they are scrapbook or card making supplies, but make fantastic earrings.  The holes were a little small and far down, so I had to make LARGE loops.  Paired these with cute little gold colored jingle bells! And, finally, the ones I had in my head the moment she announced the blog hop.  Dr. Seuss sparkly puff balls with ribbons.  The only thing that would have made these better for me is if I could have found the red ribbons I really wanted to pair these with - don't get me wrong, the silver is cool and all, but in my head they w
