Bead Soup Blog Party...........

The Bead Soup Blog Party is well under way. I have not had much time this past week to view more of the participant's blogs but hope to get there soon!

My blog partner is Pepita Bos from the Netherlands and this is the box I sent to her, contents are at this stage a surprise. I hope she will like the selection I have made.........
My parcel of beads arrived today, love the colour reminds me of the sea!  I am going to have to move from my comfort zone of tiny seed beads and plan something special with my selection of beads, the focal is amazing.
 My main source of income is from the miniature teddy bears I make. However I have 'dabbled' with beads for many years, attended workshops in glass bead making and art clay silver. I have over the years collected a large quantity of beads and findings. Unfortunately time does not allow me to spend a lot of time on my bead work and it has to be fitted in around the bears. Very excited to be part of the event, picture of my completed creation will be up on my blog on the 17th September.
Wishing you all a very special weekend.

Can't wait to see what you make. I think something special for a special bear would be great

Hi Wendy, I am glad you like what I sent you.

The pendant and clasp are made of Shibuichi metal by Green Girl Studios: www.greengirlstudios.com. I love their stuff and was happy to have a chance to buy from them personally at Bead Fest Santa Fe last march.

I cannot wait to receive your package. The box is a treat in itself.
