There's a few things on my bead table this Wednesday.
Easy Beading - Volume 8 |
Kalmbach's Easy Beading Volume 8 arrived on my beading table this week. I've got a pair of Keshi Pearl Dangle Earrings on pages 236-237. I was very excited to learn this!!

You should see all the very cool projects in this book - oh my! It's eye-candy central and the various designs are just delish!
Fanciful Devices - Etsy - Tutorial |
Then, this past weekend, I got the opportunity to play with the tutorial I ordered from Fanciful Devices over on Etsy. Her Tribal Gypsy Bangle Tutorial. Wow - how fun are these?!!
My attempt at 'Tribal' |
Trust me when I tell you they're addicting to create - seriously!!
My White Pearls Bangles with a little Hootie! |
On another note, tomorrow's the last day of school for our son. Summer will officially be here and I'm so grateful for that. I'd prefer it not be 114 degrees for the next 4 months, but the rest of the year really rocks when it comes to weather, so I'm not going to complain. I will tell you that I'm extremely grateful for air-conditioning that works though!!

What are your plans for the summer - got anything special going on? Are you traveling, seeing family and friends, hanging out, having BBQ's and enjoying the season?
Family BBQ at the Cabin |
How about your creative side? Are you crafting, beading, smacking some metal around and playing with fun stuff this summer?
Painting at Creative U!! |
I'm hoping to be teaching a couple of classes over the summer when I'm here in the Valley.
Words on the Wall at Creative U. So True,....So True!! |
I also want to play with some new materials and create a few fun, new designs.
Front Porch of the Cabin |
I'm also going to be visiting with my sister in the mountains at her cabin.
Moon over the Cabin |
I love it up there! It's so beautiful.
There's inspiration everywhere you look!
