Hello there!!
So happy to be part of Lori Anderson's bead soup (hoarders
addition) blog hop!!! Since time is
short and there is much hopping to do I will keep this post short.
I was paired up with the lovely Rebecca Ednie. She sent me a beautiful assortment of beads to
choose from. She also sent me the sweetest handmade card! I knew right away what was wanting to work with. The stone focal she sent me was a bead that
was larger than she uses so she would just end up staring lovingly at it! I
kind of got a kick out of that, as us bead hoarders can all relate I`m sure!!
What I recieved
I knew I wanted to make a bracelet (because I love
bracelets) and I wanted that to be the focal! I also wanted to include some of the soft green gemstones Rebecca sent
me!
Here is the bracelet I came up with.
Also, I would like to share with you the hoarded bead I sent Rebecca. I sent her a hearts and roses theme since they were mailed out on Valentines day. My very special hoarded bead was a beautiful detailed heart and rose pendant made by artist Monique Uquhart (Half Baked Notion). She makes amazing polymer clay beads!! I have another one of her beads that I am still happily hoarding!! I also sent Rebecca a czech glass button and some ceramic beads and headpins that I made.
Check out what Rebecca made with what I sent her! Rebecca Ednie
Thanks so much for stopping by!! - Happy Hopping!!
