More Ornaments

I mentioned I would show you some more of the ornaments I made this season with art beads! I am having fun making these ornaments and will probably make more throughout the year. Too bad I don't have any shows I'm going to do to sell them...

This first one is made with a cute cute birdhouse made by Rejetta Sellers!  I love her little polymer clay creations!  I used two shimmer beads by me, two faux rhinestone rondelles and a larger faceted glass bead and two little red rondelles to accent the birdhouse!  The hanger has a cute little peppermint that Rejetta included with the birdhouse!


These next two use polymer hearts by Martha Eason, from Menagerie Studio.  I have lots of her creations and will make more with them for sure!  This first one is made with czech rondelles and two of my tangerine sparkle beads.  The colors just pop on her piece with these beads!



This next one was made with faux black rhinestone rondelles, my shimmer beads, and a glass faceted round and two fire polished bicones.  Again, the colors just pop on the heart with the accents of these colors above!  I had a lot of fun making them.  I'll show you more when I get some made!

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!

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...
