Woven Work in Progress...

Here is a piece I've been working on for a few weeks. Its something I got from Bead & Button, mind you, but I still think it looks beautiful.



The colors and the shapes remind me of Coral in the Ocean. Once the finished product is done, I'll post it here as well. Thanks for checking it out and let me know what you think about my progress. Have a great day!

Old Subscription Paying Off



Does anyone remember this design from Bead & Button 2006? I totally dug it up a little while ago when I was trying to figure out what to teach a fellow beginning beader. Looked simple enough on paper, so we gave it a whirl. An hour later, we were still a little confused, but we managed to figure it out. Here's the work in progress so far!

Its been a while...

Wow...when you get busy and step away from something for a while, its surprising how much you miss out on when you take that time away.

Here's what I've been working on:




But its not just designing stuff! I've had a number of craft shows that I've been going to, as well as creating more jewelry for the upcoming holiday season.

Its funny, because I've gotten so busy and yet, it seems like I don't get nearly as much done as I'd like. Ever feel that way?

Even my dog is done watching whirl around in circles:

Suffice to say, I will be posting here more often, with cool stuff I make. I've got a number of shows coming up, and I'm a little nervous about them, so any help you could provide would be so awesome!
