September Give-A-Way

 I am working on a new Series of beads and Jewelry inspired by Dr. Seuss, and decided that these disc/flower beads/buttons would be great for my September bead Give-A-Way.  Make sure to read this post all the way through and enter as many ways as you can.
 The beads are different front and back so you have choices on how you use them.
They also have decoration on the edges so that if they are sandwiched between two other beads they are nice and showy.  What do you think, are they Seussy?  I know, I know not a word but I like the thought. :-)

End of the Day Beads

What are end of the day beads? If I haven't said this before they are the beads you make with all the pieces you have laying on your work table at the end of the day.  The August issue of Bead Design Studio had an article about Lori Greenberg and the end of the day beads that she makes.  She was using her lentil press and it made me want to make some lentils.  I do not know why but for some reason I usually make round beads when I make end of the day beads. These were fun now I just want to make some more.
