Art Bead Scene Challenge - The Italian's House

This month's Art Bead Scene Challenge is The Italian's House by Maurice Utrillo. I actually completed my piece before the deadline this month! I can't believe it! I always say I'm going to, and can count on one hand the number of times I actually got it done!  I really like this painting - I have never heard of him before, but I enjoy the painting!


Italian's House at Monmarte by Maurice Utrillo


So here's my piece!  I used this little house ceramic bead (and I wish I could remember who I bought it from) that works perfectly.  I also used some tiger iron beads I receive in the last bead swap from Donna Hanna.  I used a green recycled glass bead as well as a green agate pumpkin bead, and they are all separated by moss green seed beads.  I had fun with this one!  Hope you enjoyed it!

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!
