There is a lot going on this week, but I will start with my participation in the Bead Soup project. It is a major event created by Lori Anderson, of
Pretty Things Blog. Basically, you get paired with a person, and you each send each other some beads. From these beads you are to create one or more pieces to be revealed on March 3rd, with a big blog hop with all the participants, over 200 in all. My partner is Rebekah Payne, of
Tree Wings Studio. She is a polymer clay artist and very good! Part of this project is to make you go outside of your comfort zone and create with things that you wouldn't usually do! This is so true for me, the beads I received are gorgeous and I am so excited to be creating with them. I took a few pictures the day I got them and wanted to share with you all.
First, when the package arrived and I unwrapped it, I was so surprised to see the cutest packaging ever on beads I received in the mail:
as I unwrapped the package, there were two packages within it!
oh, so much fun, first I unwrapped the small one and found some treasures, my focal bead and clasp
and within the glass jar were the rest of the beads I get to create with!
stay tuned for March 3rd, when you will be able to see what I have created and the other 199 participants have! Thank you Lori for the opportunity and Rebekah for the beautiful beads
