I was able to go outside yesterday and take some pictures of beads and a necklace I made during all the rain. Here are some beads I just posted on Etsy.
Last one of these in this color.

These are new Flower Burst Focal Beads. These are so much fun to design with. The first batch I made went to a necklace I made and is shown below. They're great as a focal or combine several of them or even mix them with other beads. I think a bracelet with one as a focal would be really cute also.
I know it's no where near Valentines Day but when inspiration comes I just grab it. These are hand formed and not made with a mold.
We all need a little smile from time to time.
Enjoy your day,

I love your new Flower Burst Focals. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteI wish you could send some of your rain our way in Texas. We're still in a drought. About 14 months now. Some cities are even beginning to run out of water.
As for Tornado's, I grew up with them in Missouri. There's really not much you can do to prepare. I usually try to keep my important papers/pictures together so I can grab them, my purse and my computer to run hide in the closet. A better place to go is your bathroom, as long as it's not on an outside wall or has a window (Like both of mine). We lost our house to a tornado when I was small. Now, for hurricanes, I'm in your dilemna. I'm far enough north in Texas that we don't usually get them, so if one came this far, I'd be at a loss. Glad you're safe.
Absolutely beatutiful!! I just love your lampwork and all of the variety that you create! :-)
