Project 2

Beading Babes November



I began the Beading Babes Project 2 for November, you can check out Beading Babes by clicking here.

I started working on the Earthly Hues necklace by Carole Ohl shown in the Beadwork Aug/Sept 2010 issue. I chose a purple color scheme with Cherry Quartz Glass for the 12mm beads. I'll try and get clearer pictures for the finished necklace reveal. Thank you for visiting!

I Heart Macro

I Heart Macro Marbles

This is my first I Heart Macro and I chose to take photos of some marbles I have sitting in a dish in my studio. I was curious to see what colors would stand out, how the depth would show and how the light would reflect or absorb. I think they turned out fairly interesting.







Thank you for Visiting!

Welcome to Wisconsin!

A Visit From A Friend

Last week Therese from Therese's Treasures visited Wisconsin and we got together for an afternoon. If I used one word to describe what I thought of our get together I would say enlightening. You can read all about our visit at Therese's blog by clicking here. You can see the wonderful gifts she gave me which included an absolutely beautiful bracelet she made. Therese is truly a wonderful person and a good friend.

What I am going to talk about today is something I shared with her which was that I am going to redesign my blog. There are things I have been thinking about doing and have taken steps to do though I haven't shared them here yet and I would like to. I plan to continue making jewelry and participating in challenges and I also want to include my soap making and other things I enjoy doing, taking pictures, and visiting with friends. 

So to get started I am going to go grab the I Heart Macro button and start taking pictures...come back on Sunday to see them. 

Thank you for visiting!
