New Beads or Where Have I Been?






I can't believe it's actually been so long since I posted a blog post. I have been quite busy, my son had a musical, the boyfriend and I went to the Omni Bedford Springs for a weekend, and we visited my grandfather in Florida for a few days. I have been trying to do the spring cleaning and I had to get a new roof and I spent a LARGE part of my day today with Verizon to no avail. I'm not getting emails and I'm very frustrated. Plus I'm not getting the channels I want on TV and do you know how hard they make it to deal with anyone on the phone AND how hard it is to use their web site? Gah! Anyways, here's some beads I listed in the SueBeads etsy store and I'll post some photos of Bedford and Florida and the musical - all fun things, just busy busy busy! I'll be glad when spring break is over and we can get back on a schedule!

Sue, I was just thinking about you today and wondering how things are. Very, very busy I see. Oh,and those over the phone, can't actually get a real person, or at least one that can deal with it, is the most frustrating thing you can spend your time on. Anyways, it is good to hear from you and I look forward to hearing about your travels.

Art Elements April Theme Challenge - Repurpose

The AE Theme Challenge this month is Repurpose chosen by Lesley. Great subject, and I wish I had more time to work on it. The day job kind of takes away my creative energy at times, and this month is no exception! However I did manage to do a few things! The first thing I thought of for the theme was something I had been thinking about for a long time. I remembered I had this magazine that repurposed those desiccant containers you get in pill bottles into beaded beads. I set out to find that magazine in my stash. I'm glad I found it, because it was actually driving me nuts as to where it was. Here are some photos of me in the process of making some of these beads. So the first one I made, I liked ok. But noticed on the end that you could see the white container through the ends. So I got a sharpie out for the next one, and colored the ends so they didn't look so white. Then I made a few more of these beads, and quite honestly, I was done with...

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 ...
