Sick Sick Sick




Hi! I am so sick - this has to be the worst cold I have ever had. Really...I don't whine when I get sick! I've had two kids! I had a horrible hemorrhage after I had my daughter, lost half my blood and almost died. I've had cancer! I don't whine - but this cold is kicking my butt! So, even though I have some beads I really need to make, I just can't play with fire today, with my head this fuzzy. It would be stupid! So, I'm going to list some beads, take some photos, and make a bracelet for the Art Bead Scene February challenge. In between laying down and blowing my nose and drinking tons of liquids (my throat hurts SO bad!). We're supposed to get a snowstorm here soon. We are also supposed to go see Jack Hanna tonight, I wonder if he'll travel with this impending weather with all his animals? I would love for it to be rescheduled for a day when I feel better!

Sorry to hear you are under the weather. Take it easy and don't feel like you have to keep pushing. Put up your feet and let everyone wait on you. We, all women, don't get enough credit for how super human we are most of the time.

Does this mean I need to soak my beads in hand sanitizer when they arrive? JK! Sure hope you feel better soon - colds are the worst! The beads are great - especially that last set of rounds. Definitely my colors!

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.

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 ...
