Yumm another sweet Purple rose Z-99 pod. I am lovin these new shapes. It's so sexy. Can a bead be sexy...hell ya.
This ones up on my Etsy store.
Tomorrow I am going to haunt some antique stores. I have a couple friends that haven't been to the St. Louis Cherokee street antique row.
Tons of shop after shop of goodies. Hopefully we can have a nice lunch and find some good stuff. I will make sure and take some pictures.
Wish me luck.
Bead and Button sign ups are open! I am so proud to be on the faculty and teaching my Soft Glass Implosions class.
This is going to be a great class. Not only will you learn how to do soft glass implosions but I will be teaching ton's of cool stuff that you can use in the beads you are making now.
I have been making beads for 14 years and teaching for 11years. I can figure out why things aren't working and how to make them work. I have tons of tips and tricks to teach. Plus I teach a fun class.
I hope I will see some of you there.
Dang I am such a slut for this Z-99 powder from Andrea. I made some baby pods to go with the mama pods. I am having a blast with this stuff.
A lot of fellow bloggers are participating in Loris Bead Soup. It's a big undertaking and takes tons of work from Lori. In addition, she gives us great tips to connect with other artist. My last email from her she suggested we stop by other Bead Soup blogs. Well I have done just that, and you know what, it's great. I have seen some great blogs and beautiful designs. So take Lori's advice and try and stop by some peoples blogs, you might just make some new friends!
Last year Andrea came and taught at my studio and showed up with Zimmerman Purple Rose Powder Well I haven't used it except for while she was here and thought I better try it out. I of course love it and guess what, it is not made anymore. Yep she has the last bit of it and she is selling it, so if you love it too, better act quick!
This pod is a new style, flattened and I am really happy with the results. I am going to put it on my Etsy store as soon as I put a silver bail on it. So grab it if you love it.
Do you want to have a great time? What to see beautiful creations and meet great people.
Bead Soup is one of my favorite things that I have done.
Sign ups start today!
Ahhh beginnings. I am ready for 2011, both feet, jumping in, bring it on. I also am ready to get back to work at the studio. I miss all my work buddies.
I am ready to get into the studio and try some new things, flex some muscles. I want to take a couple of weeks and work on some exciting stuff. I want to make a bunch of mistakes and learn from them. If you are not screwing stuff up, then you are not trying hard enough. I think the only time I ever really learned cool stuff was because of big ole fat mistakes. You know like working on a bead and not constructing it correctly and losing your fine detail CAUSE IT NEEDS TO BE ADDED LAST, ask me how I know...
So bring on 2011 and lets all make some BIG mistakes.
