I was playing around with picnik so black corners today. Etched Turquoise and copper green so pretty together. Green set is cim Poison Apple with frit. Then opal yellow with z-99 and Sea Green Reduction powder and silver droplets.

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.

Funny name for a bracelet but thats all I got. I used some of Janel ceramic beads, seed beads, tornado wrapped wire beads glass head pins and charms and 6 of my lampwork beads so hence the name.

I have tons of new beads in hopes to make some goodies for the Virtual Tour. I might of bitten off more than I can chew but we will see. Oh my it's snowing Thats all I need is to not get out of the driveway. I can't believe it was 75 on Thursday.

Earring Exchange

 Diane from Suburban Girl  is having an Art Bead Earring Swap. Sue from SueBead's was my partner. We both are Lampwork Artists. I stole Sue's picture as mine didn't do her beautiful beads justice. She paired her beads with cute light blue peanut beads and a hand made earring wire. Check out the rest of the group below. I will repost the list I don't know what happen.

My Bead Soup from natasha!

I am going to make this short as you have so many blogs to go see. My partner Natasha made the most amazing metal textured flower focal. I paired it with orange em-bead cord and my orange lampwork beads and headpins. With  all the other Vintaj components I made a  bracelet and earring to match.
