Pictures coming

The last set of these sold right away, but I did have a little bit of glass yet to make another set.  I just added it to me website.  I was able to get out yesterday and get some pictures, so be looking for those soon.

Jonas Bros

The weather here hasn't been the best, so therefore I haven't been able to take any pictures of new beads.  I do have a fun picture to show you though.  My sister and mom went to a Jonas Brothers concert (I am sure anyone with little girls has heard of this band)  Anyway she won a pass for a meet and greet to see them in person.  She has been a huge fan of the Jonas Brothers before they were even well known, so this was really a dream come true for her.  Cute picture Huh ?!?!

On a roll with the rounds

Here are a few more round sets that I just added to the website.  

The metallic black set I listed yesterday sold right away, but I think I have enough glass for one more set, so check back for when that will be listed.

Thanks so much for checking my blog!

Coolest beads ever

I am loving this glass!  I have had this glass for awhile, but could never get the colors to pop like I had seen it was suppose to do.  It is a very expensive glass (all of these colors come from one rod of glass!), so I didn't play with it too much because I didn't want to waste it.  I got it out again the other day and WOW!!!  I finally got the colors I was hoping for.  This is amazing and I love the beads so much.  I only have 1 rod left and will be ordering some more soon.  Grab this set while you can.  I had to make a pair of earrings right away with it.

A few new pairs of earrings ( all added to my website to purchase)



A few days ago I put on a picture of my bead board with a project I was working on. I finished it over the weekend and here it is.  It is so hard to get a good photo, but the colors look great together.  There is also a pair of matching earrings.

Hope everyone had a great 4th.  Here in Iowa it was rainy and cold.  Sure didn't seem like the 4th this year with the weather and the fact it was on a Saturday.  We were able to enjoy the fireworks, so it ended good.

What I am working on

Yesterday I was outside with the kids while they were playing ball.  I took out my bead board to do some stringing.  The beads just glimmered in the sun and were so pretty, so I thought I would take a picture.  Hopefully I will have a finished piece to show off soon.

Have a wonderful and safe 4th of July!

New necklaces

I love this color combination and it was so fun picking out beads to match with the focal.  I used soft flex trios (I have mentioned them before) in shades of sea green, ivory and aqua blue.  The second necklace I used a trio with 3 shades of blue.  In each necklace there are 3 strands, although it looks like more because of the shadows.
