What a Fun Day!

We all had a great day today! We went to Jason's where I made lunch of some really good mexican style chicken soup and homemade mac and cheese, and the kids had a great time sled riding!Jason and I took a walk down to see donkey (aka Eeeyore) and Skipper, and he took these photos. I think they came out really well, so I had to share. I rarely like photos of myself!
Eeyore and Skipper were getting peppermints! They really liked the attention, too.
We all went out to dinner later for Jason's birthday, and on the way home, I had to take a photo of these rainbow trees to share with you all. It's hard to see the purple one, but I love how the lights came out in the darkness of this photo!

Sue, those are lovely photos of you. I know what you mean though about photos of yourself. I dislike most photos of me. The rainbow trees are beautiful. But I gotta say that's a lot more snow on the ground than I want to deal with. Pretty but cooold.

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.

AE Component of the Month - July - Scarabs by Me!

I provided the scarab beads for the Component of the Month Challenge over at Art Elements for July! And as usual, didn't take a photo of my own bead before I started working with it.  But here is the one I used - unfortunately, you can't see the lustrous oil slick colors of this black metallic glass because once again we have cloudy days here in Pittsburgh. I made a choker length necklace using spiral stitch and these awesome seed beads that go so well with this black metallic glass! I used hematite swarovski crystals to divide the bead stitching and the scarab focal bead; I actually ordered a pile of pairs of various black swarovski colors and decided that these match the best! I finished off the necklace with the ball socket clasp - it's a nice way to finish a spiral stitch - the size is just right and it's fairly easy to sew into the design. Please check out what our guests and team members made with their scarabs! And thanks to everyone who took par...
