Aren't these earrings pretty. They were made by a customer of mine and are in her shop Inspired Theory on Etsy. It's funny Sue got these from me several years ago at a show I did in North Dakota and she just recently found me again on Etsy. The wonderful power of the Internet.

Newest scarf dangle.............

............is almost done. Since I was lucky enough to sell the last one right off my neck last weekend I had to make a new one for this weekends show. I of course had no luck finding a ready made scarf and had to knit one. The knitting is all done but the fringe has yet to be added. And you wondered why I didn't show you the ends of the scarf. We are off in the morning to Minneapolis or Hopkins to be exact to the Twin Cities Bead Bazaar. Come visit us if you can.

Scarf Dangle

This is my new scarf dangle. I had a terrible time getting a decent picture the wind was blowing and things kept moving. Any way you will just have to come see it this weekend in Lincoln at the bead show. The show is being held at the Guesthouse Inn on Cornhusker this year. Come for a visit.

Flower Bowl

This bowl of flowers is headed to Lincoln for the bead show this weekend. I think it looks like a flower all by it's self. It also took a long time to fill it up. I did not realize how deep the little sections were.

Tiny Frogs

Tiny frogs where the game of the day a couple of days ago. I have not made these little froggy faces in a long time and I had fun with all their expressions the other day. I so want to make some frog prince earrings but this pair is destined for Etsy this afternoon.
I also tried my hand at a tiny Peace Dove and I think they will make cute earrings too.

Cabs

I have been wanting for a while to try to make some beads with flat backs that you could use like a cabochon. I have many good friends that do bead embroidery and I just love the look of it. I have never tried to bead around a cab so...................
...........yesterday armed with a box of Good and Plenty's I set to work on this one. I really did like it and it was much faster than I had thought it would be. My friend Jodie says one leads to another and she is probably right I might be hooked.

The Art in the Bag Auction.....

............is coming up very soon and while these three bags have been almost done for months I had to get around and do the finishing touched so I could send them off yesterday. Would not have wanted them to miss getting sold at the auction.
The Market bags squish down into these tiny bundles so that you can store them easily in your car and actually have them when you need them. If you want to know more about Art in the Bag just click and it will send you to their web page.
