Iowa Bead Fair

It sure is a good thing that I have such nice friends like Jodie who remembers her camera and will take pictures for me or you would not get to see what the Bead Fair looked like. We had a bit of nasty weather getting there Friday night, some lovely time on the expressway going 35 miles per hour and watching trucks slide all over the road. But the rest of the weekend was lovely even if it was a little cold.

The new kit was a big hit which I am so glad of. Guess I get to make some new color combos up for the show in Minneapolis next month.

I just found out that someone thought my chili peppers were hot enough to include in an
Etsy Treasury
if you click on the link before Wednesday night you can see them there.

Flower Power Bracelet

Well there needed to be a bracelet to go with the necklace. Something fun and funky especially in this horribly cold weather. Went out this morning and the bank said it was 3 degrees. That seemed so much better than Wednesday when it was 1.

Another New Piece

Just finished up this new piece. I have had it in my head for a while but needed to make the sequins and get the right color seed beads. Always trying to do something new.

Flower Power Necklace

I have been working today on a new piece to photograph for my jury photos for this year. I am always making new pieces but this time of year I have to have several that photograph well for the show juries and I hate it. I do like this piece though all 60's colors and shapes.
