Thanks to all of you who read my blog and leave comments - I cannot tell you how much I love reading them each day!

 

Sometimes, birthday's can be hard. 

Not sure how I feel about this one yet.

This is number 48.

Wow. That felt weird to write.

LOL!!

 

Oh well, it is what it is, right?   It is just a number after all. (That's my story,.....)

 

And, I'd like to wish fellow birthday gal,

Lori Anderson,

a very Happy Birthday today, too! 

 

Everyone have a great weekend and feel free to pass this along to your friends so they can comment and have a chance to win as well!

 

Until Next Time,

Peace, Love and Birthday Fun!

Cheers,

Oh yeah, and don't forget, the first reveal of  Lori's Bead Soup Blog Party is Tomorrow, so be sure to hop on over to her blog and check out all the wonderful soups every one will have cooked up!!

Here's the LUCKY One!

Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone!!

A couple of days back I posted a pic of these gorgeous lampwork  head pins by Havana Beads that I'd won. 

I created these fun earrings with a couple of them.

I wanted to share a couple with you and so I had a little drawing. Only a couple of people comment here below on the blog, but a few of you convo'd me on Etsy and FB'd me, so just I put the names together and had a little 'old fashioned' drawing - you know, with paper,...in a little cup!

And, Therese was the lucky recipient of two of these lovely Lampwork head pins from Havana Beads!!

Woo Hoo!

So, Happy Beading Therese and if you get the chance to show us what you create with them, that would be fabulous!!

Until Next Time,

Peace, Love and Sharing Cool Findings!!

Cheers,

~Shel~

What Would You Create?

A while back I was the lucky winner of these wonderful Honeycomb Head Pins created by

Raida over at Havana Beads!  

(I know, I was drooling when I saw them, too!!)

Okay, back to these goodies!!

Honeycomb Headpins from Havana Beads

I created one pair of earrings for my "Spice it Up" Collection using these awesome Honeycomb Head Pins but that has been it so far.

These are "Spiced Cognac" and they're over on Flickr.

I've been looking at these and stewing over them and wondering what else I'd like to create with them.

I love earrings (as many of you know) and they're my favorite things to create, so I have a feeling that a couple of them may find their way into another pair!

Oh, but what to mix them with!?!

What would you create, given the chance? 

Let me know by leaving a comment below here on the blog and I might possibly (hint - hint) share a couple of these with someone!  (Wouldn't that be fun!!)

I'm linking up with BTW today over on Flikr because these are indeed still on my bead table today.

Along with about 60 more pairs ear wires I still need to get hammered out by the end of the day!!

Take care and don't forget to leave a comment telling me what you'd like to create if these were on your

bead table today!!

Until Next Time,

Peace, Love and Sharing!

Hopping, Hopping, Hopping,...

Well, I'm still blog hopping this week,

trying to get to everyone who participated in

Lori Anderson's Bead Soup Blog Party

this past Saturday.

I've encountered so many wonderful blogs, made new friends, seen some of the most amazing jewelry designs ever

(I'm w/Lori - my hat's off to all the peeps working w/seed beads - you amaze me!!)

and I love all the various mediums people have utilized - simply amazing!!

I have even picked up a few "Great Finds" here and there

from some of the wonderful artists I've encountered.

Like these lovelies from Raida Disbrow over at

Havana Beads - Oh My! 

Havana Beads on Etsy

How lovely are these goodies?  

They arrived yesterday (Thank you Raida!!) and WOW!
