My Second Summertime Item Review…

Artbeads.com sent me beautiful coin shape glass beads in yellow and white. They have wonderful little peacock spots on them. I love these! They are a little smaller than I expected (now where is my ruler? :o) ) so I did not make the bracelet I had planned. However, earrings developed and they’re so HAPPY, they make me want to dance! Artbeads.com has tons of beautiful glass beads, so check them out!

I also received these cool Bamboo beads in ..you guessed it! Yellow! I’m on a roll here… They are so interesting, with a little band of dichroic around the middle. The hole, which you may be able to tell in the photo, is an eensy bit bigger than I expected…(ruler, again) so my intended purpose did not work out. They are really awesome and come in lots of beautiful colors. I wonder how I will use these?

Well, I hope you guys like the earrings, but I’m not finished yet! I have one more item to show off, soon!!

The good old summertime…

It’s been a very hot summer in Texas, and we’ve been very busy settling back into our home. We still have a long way to go, but I have neglected my blog so long, I decided this update needed to happen NOW! Things never seem to go as planned, so sometimes I just have to readjust priorities.

I have several items from Artbeads.com to review. The first is a diamond shaped Murano glass pendant. It’s so pretty and cheerful, I can imagine it with a great little sundress! It is full of little flowers, so I decided not to compete with them. I made a simple bail of several kinds and colors of seed beads. I think it will be lovely and feminine on a hand-dyed silk ribbon, either black or yellow, or BOTH! It would also look great on a thick round leather cord. This pendant will move right on in to fall, and will really pop with a black sweater!

Well, there we have the first item of my review. I’m late, but don’t give up on me yet! I have a couple of more items to show off! I’ll be back…
