I wanted to fill you in on the Kalmbach Bead Soup Party to celebrate the
wonderfully talented Lori Anderson's (Pretty Things Blog) awesome new book:
Bead Soup
32 Projects Show What Happens
When 26 Beaders Swap Their Stash.

Kalmbach Publishing got together with several wonderful
suppliers who graciously handed out cups of bead soup and asked people who
received beads to create something from what they were sent and then to
blog about it.

Although it doesn't give any rules as to a specific date you have to post your
before and after photos on your blog and their Facebook Page, I've already seen some people
who have finished their pieces and posted them so I've set a deadline for myself of the 19th of October. Be sure to come back here on Friday the 19th and see what sort of soup I cooked up, okay?

That is so cool! Sometimes that happens in the BSBP, I'll inadvertently pair two people who are down the road from each other but they've never met!
ReplyDeleteI shop at bead world all the time and I'm always chatting with the girls there. I thought it was just so cool that I got beads from them for the Kalmbach Bead Party to celebrate your book - it's too fun!
ReplyDeleteHow neat that, out of all the bead soups that were sent out from all over the country, you got one right around the corner from where you're at! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd a beautiful soup at that! I can't wait to see what you 'cook' up!
