Bead Soup on a Hot Day.... Maybe

What a beautiful couple of days we have had here in Fresno.

The sun is shining, the birds are singing

and soup is on.

Bead Soup that is.

You know, the kind with focals, beads and clasps

mixed with some fibers, findings

and friends.

Over 500+ friends to be exact.

with 3 reveal dates.

Mine just happened to be in the second reveal,

but I had issues that were beyond my

control and

I am not ready to reveal just yet.

But, since I just received my soup last week

let me introduce you to my partner and soup.

I was lucky enough to be paired with the amazing

Lori Anderson 

Here is the soup she sent me.

This is my first time in the hop.

I have only been making jewelry for about a year.

So I hope when it is time to show my work you will like it.

Here is the link for the 2nd reveal list of blogs.

Thirft Shop Blog Hop Reveal Day

My moment of Truth

     I have been nervous for this day for some time now.  My very first blog hop.... What if I don't use the right beads?  What if I don't have everything I need to complete my vision?  What if what I create sucks?  I guess maybe questions all newbies ask themselves. One thing I did know is I needed to get my thinking out of the neg and just jump in and start.  I knew I wanted to take the necklaces and turn them into bracelets. (my fav piece of jewelry)  I also wanted to do a stackable bracelet, but was not sure what type.  So here is what I came up with:

I did one bracelet with the memory wire, I used some seed beads I had as well as some butterfly beads. The larger 

seed beads are from one of the necklaces & then used the tiger eye & button from the other necklace.

The other bracelet I used the pretty much both of the same seed beads, but used the larger tiger eye beads I had with the smaller ones from the necklace.

Finally I also made some earrings from the glass beads that were on the one necklace.

I had so many beads left over that I wanted to do one more piece, but with the two birthdays of my grandsons Marik and Joshua, I just couldn't swing it this time.  I really enjoyed doing my first blog hop.  I hope that when my second one comes around (in a couple of weeks) that my work has progressed.  You guys are watching me from the very beginning.. lol

Deep Deep Creating Thoughts

My Thrift Shop Blog Hop

::In Progress::

     Okay so I have spent the last couple of days getting my pieces together for the blog hop.  I had to take one piece apart and will definitely take the other one apart because I wanted to use copper wire instead of the silver.  My hubby said he could not tell, but I could and that is what mattered.  Anyhow here is a few pics of my madness in process......

     Here is my board at one time.  I had a little of everything just thrown everywhere.  LOL  But a nice chaotic mess it is, don't you think?

     They are not quite done.. In fact I have taken them apart a few times.  But I am just missing something and I don't know if I will be able to get it together by reveal time.  So this is my little quick peek into my goodies I will have ready.  Come back to see how it all comes together.

Have a blessed evening.
