Inspiration



A few days ago, Lorelei Eurto posted on her facebook wall a photo of a set of ceramic spheres by House of Ceramics on etsy. She felt that the photo would be great inspiration for bead makers. I did too - I love the colors and have recently been loving my round bead mold. I was going to make beads that night anyways, and this has me totally excited. The first photo is the one Lorelei posted - a set of four ceramic spheres in gorgeous cool colors. The second photo is my interpretation. It was fun. I think I'm going to try this each week!

I love that shop when Lorelei posted it and I love how it inspired you, I'd buy a pair of that front knobby bead if you list them.

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. You may recall my partner was Margot Potter ; click this link to see the blog post I wrote of what she sent me! Here's what I made! Dangly earrings! Come see what the rest of us made! 1.

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!
