Bead Hoarders Blog Hop Reveal

The amazing Lori Anderson  put a call out for all Bead Hoarders

to dig into their stash

and create some beauties using those 

beads.

 I, once again, decided to join in.

Not because I think of myself as a Bead Hoarder,

but because I love to save beads for a rainy day, or in this case

a hot, sunny day.

Unfortunately I came down with food poisoning and was 

in bed for about 9 days.

Sooooo....

I was only able to get a pair of earrings made and start on some pendants.

I had saved some lovely sea glass type rings from what Lori sent me

for the Bead Soup blog hop.

I had no idea what I wanted to do with them.

Until I remembered that I had won some awesome fibers in a contest last year.

So I grabbed them and some green sea glass beads I had left over from

the 5x5 challenge.

I right away knew what I was going to do with them ;)

(that is a first.. lol)

Here is what the bottom looks like.

I then started to wire wrap a couple pendants,

but did not get the beads on them :(

But here is what they look like.

Yep, kitties :)

I have not decided if I want to make pendants or pins.

But either way I will post when they are complete.

Lori, thank you soo much for putting this on.

You truly amaze me with everything you have going on and 

still can get us together.

Now here is the list of the other designers who dared to take the challenge :)
