My beads from A
drienne Campbell, who is my partner in the bead soup swap. I think she knows how I like working with greens and I love rainforest jasper. I will have fun making a necklace with my swap beads. Its funny because I sent her greens too. Please stop by and take a look at Adrienne’s blog, she just had surgery on her hand. Hope you are having a fast recovery Adrienne
I will be making my bead soup party necklace and the post early and setting it to publish on the 10th. Because I will be on vacation in Tucson. I am excited about getting to go again.
Be sure and check all the bead soup party blogs on Feb. 10th and see what everyone made. To see all blogs participating see Lori Anderson’ s blog

On Friday after Thanksgiving Taylor ask me to help her make a collage for her Dad for Christmas. They had been to the Paul McCartney concert and she thought it would be fun to make him something with all the memorabilia she had collected. Laina thught it would be fun, as long as her cousin was making one she would too. We all had a lot of fun and I think both projects turned out great. The girls did a wonderful job.

This month’s challenge is
“Fairy Feller’s-Master Stroke”
by Richard Dadd.


I used a handmade bead by Lynn Davis, Czech glass, jasper and Hilltribe Thai silver, all strung on natural colored cord.
I think Lynn’s bead has old worked charm.
You can see all entries on the group flickr photos and you can see more views of my necklace on my flickr photos.
