The year is starting out with a bang for me again as far as contests go. I entered - and am ONE of the winners of
Indigo Turtles cabochon giveaway! I linked you to their Facebook page - where you'll find all the info about them you need, as well as a link to their Etsy shop. These are really cool porcelain cabochons and focal pieces; can't wait to get mine and start playing with it. It will give me a good excuse to finally STOP the madness that ended up being my Fire Mountain entry. There's one good thing about these contest entries - you don't have to commit until ALL is said and done. Even after TWO separate orders to make sure I was meeting the criteria for the contest, one complete design idea change, and countless hours already spent beading, beading, BEADING - I don't think I like it well enough to submit it for a contest. Not even sure I will finish it in it's current form. Maybe next year....
So what's next? Besides the Indigo Turtle piece? Probably more denim. It's been a piece or two since I played, and I really could use some more earrings. Still working with those in denim form-should they be long and fringe-y? Short and stiff? Belt loop size? Half a belt loop size?
As you can see, I've actually created ALL of them in some form of denim design or another - but I've only sold 1 or 2 pair. Still need to come up with that ONE unique idea for those too....
Hope you're finding time to bead and play during what seems to be a snowy season
for most of the nation.
Bella's making doggie snow angels!
If you're in the south - I envy. If you're anywhere else - I feel your pain. But from what I HEAR - Spring is coming soon. So let me leave you with a springtime teaser.... The first bloom of my favorite garden flower - the Bleeding Heart.
Peaceful beading,
TTFN
