Bead Soup!! It's On

Beads from my partner Kristin Latimer from MJM Designs. Just look at that focal it's beautiful. Kristin makes the most gorgeous jewelry designs using lampwork beads from very talented artists. Check out her etsy store to see her designs and her blog. Oh what fun!

This is what I sent Kristin. You can tell what day the sun was out. I didn't see any dark beads in her collection so I went with that. She works in more silver so I sent antique and black chain. I can't wait to see what she makes. I do know it will be over the top beautiful. Click on picture to see the gorgeous colors on the black beads.

Bead Soup mailed! Do you want to peek?

Bead Soup is On!

I got the very very talented Kristen Latimer as my partner. All her jewelry is gorgeous in the sparkle kind of way, so do I send rustic beads? Torching will be fun today. Hope every one is happy with there partners. I am, a little intimidated I have to confess. Happy Beading to all of us.

New Cool Pendants

I guess you leave name off when doing a collage. Or maybe add to one, oh well. My new collection of pendants. You will be seeing more as I love making them and they are so darn cute.

Gone Rouge with great results

Copper Green is one of my favorite colors to work, it has fun with other glass, loves to be etched but it's a  little pricy then other glass, so if you mess up there is a few SHit's!!!!!!!! that can be heard in the next town over. This bead was going to be a thin ring around a large mandrel, as you can see it got thick and then I went crazy and just wrapped over my thick ring. I was ready to just dump it the water jug but had room in the kiln and saved it. So Happy I did as I love this bead. I will try to make again cause 3 on a chain would be cool.
     Hope every one had a great New Years! I have goals set,  Submit to magazines, Etsy upload 3 time's a day, Do more challenges, loose 20 LB's, Blog More designs, exercise 45 min 3 times a week, Zumba Make new and exciting beads for 2012.

Cute Holiday Earrings

New earring on Etsy. Made with my red lampwork with silver droplets and cute joy bezel on vintaj earring wire.
I have have the house decorated with all my handmade snowmen and Santa's the tree is trimmed, the lights are hung and the driveway has a pathway of candy canes.
I go back to the doctors tomorrow to get the stitches out. I am very happy with my results, glad I had it done over. My doctor was a little apprehensive  to fix some else's mistake. He had a lot of fixing to do to repair so I had a lot of stitches on the outside to form the breasts. I get to wait 8 months then I get the nipples and tattoo. This has been a long process, but I am very blessed to spend another beautiful Holiday with family and friends.
Hope to have more bead sets on Etsy soon.

50 Cent Sunday

50 Cent Sunday on Etsy today. These are nice beads just not perfect in my eyes. They just didn't make it into set. One may have a pucker that I fixed with the dremel and a bead cap will fix nicely. Enjoy and be creative.

For the life of me this will not go on the side
