It's Bead Soup Time………………...

Every year, Lori Anderson coordinates an event called Bead Soup Blog Party.  It takes much effort to pair people from all over the world into partners and then we send our partners a collection of beads and they use their creative juices to mix the soup up and create some beautiful end results.

This year I am paired up with Patty Miller of Carabi Beads.

She is a lamp worker and metalsmith who loves color!  I am so excited to be paired up with her!

Here are a few of her pieces from her Etsy store

I just sent my bead soup to her, trying to get it in the mail before we left for spring break, I can't ruin the surprise but here is a sneak peak of what is on the way!!

so, I am off to the beach and when I return, we will begin to simmer our soup!
