Happy Monday!! More WIP’s, Listings, & Klub News!!

Hello & Happy Monday!! 🌣 How is everyone doing?!?!  I am great and had a wonderful weekend and I am back and ready to give you all a review of all that was going on the previous week and get ready for this week 😉.   Last week was a fun week with a ‘Hippie’ WIP and then a start of another WIP, a new listing and even a Klub member posting about how the bead along is going for her!  Then we have even more that happened last week too…another member showed off her birthday earrings she received from me, and I got the New Monthly Peyote Bracelet in a Box Kit up for August too!! Let’s get started, shall we?!?! 

Let’s start off with Last Monday (8/1) …after having a great weekend and pulling the beads for the next WIP, I came back ready to bead!!  I started off with the first 10 rows (180 beads-18 beads per row) with some fun and bright colored beads ☺.  I just love these colors-they make me feel so happy!!  At the end of that day, when it was time to get dinner going, I had 50 rows (900 beards) and the letter H was done and a new letter was starting!!  Tuesday morning, I was back at my bead tray playing with all those lovely fun and bright colored beads, starting off at row 60 (1,080 beads).  Now you can see the H & the I 😁.  I had fun pulling out my rows of ten with these bright beads until my day came to an end to get dinner-I finished up with 100 rows (1,800 beads) …a P added and some flower splashes for the ‘HIPPIE’ bracelet!  Wednesday, I got started with another 10 rows added -110 rows (1,980 beads) and the 2^nd ‘P’ was about halfway done!! I was able to get to row 150 (2,700 beads) with the ‘P’ done and the 2^nd I done and more splashes of flowers 😉 before it was time for me to go and get ready for my BINGO night!!  Thursday (8/4), when I came back to my beading tray, I had quite a bit more done (was able to do them really early that morning) and started with row 180 (3,180 beads)!!  It was almost done-just had to finish up the ‘E’ and get the rest of the findings on it!!  I finished up that day and then decided to wait until Friday to begin another WIP 😉!  Let’s look back at some of those working photos and soon you’ll get to see its new listing!!

Time for showing you the rest of the available kits that I still have left in my shop -there are not too many left, so grab them while you can!! Remember, when these are gone, that is it!! This is the absolute last chance to get these OOAK patterns before they are gone and will no longer be offered-these ahead and look at the listing and if you’d like to know more about them, all you have to do is click on the link below and it will take you to it 😉!! 

Before we move on to the next new WIP, let’s look at the new listing of the HIPPIE peyote bead woven bracelet!  It is a 2-drop peyote bracelet that has fun and bright look to it.  It will add that splash to any outfit and can be worn all year round!!  Let’s go ahead and look at the listing and if you’d like to know more or go ahead and add it to collection, the link under the photo will take you to this listing in my shop ☺

Now let us move on to the other WIP that I worked on this past week!  I was amazed that only after a number of rows had been done, someone had already been able to guess that it was Jack Sparrow-well my2-drop peyote Kawaii -style version of him being worked for a 5×7!! I started with the first 5 rows (230 beads) with it just being basically the background color (I ended up getting to start him Thursday 8/4 in late evening 😉.  So, on Friday 8/5 when I kicked off my day, I had 25 rows (1,150 beads) and there was a whole lot more to see at that point!!  I pulled my rows of 5 and beaded all day until it was time to get my dinner and had 45 rows (2,070 beads) and Jack’s captain hat almost getting done and some hair starting to show…it was around that time that someone was able to guess that it was him ☺!!  I will be continuing to work on him this week but for now let’s take a look at what I got accomplished from last week!! REMEMBER, that you can check out my Facebook Fan Page, Google+ Page, or my Instagram Pagethroughout the day to watch updates and working photos!

It’s that time again!! Time to do the Monthly Peyote Bracelet in a Box Kit!!!  This month, we have a Majestic White PeacockPattern!! This is a Single Drop peyote pattern (It will be the 3rd & Final installment of my peacock patterns) and each kit will contain everything you need to create a Krafty Max Originally designed bracelet: A printed word chart In Single drop peyote (a color chart can be requested and be sent digitally), a needle, All Delica beads, plated bar ends and findings.  Kit dates are as follows: Available from August 1, 2022 until August 30, 2022 and then Kits will be mailed on or by September 7, 2022.   A little FYI about kits…The PATTERN is ONLY available with these kits!!After June 17th these patterns/kits will no longer be Available!!  Delica Bead colors are subject to change!!

Last but not least, we have some news and updates in our K~Max Klub group ☺!!  The Sunrise/sunset cherry tree bead a long is still going on and we have Jessica who is one of our members, who has updated us on her version of it!  Mine turned out as a Sunset but hers is turning out as a sunset…she chose like colors to the original listing of colors for the bead along.  This just goes to show that depending on your bead colors how different a pattern can turn out 😉.  I can’t wait to see hers completed…this past week she showed us her first 50 then 100 rows. We’ll look at those posts she shared with us soon.  Then we also have members who have had birthdays and shared with us their special gift I sent them for being members in the Klub ☺…Joyce was one of those who shared, and I will share with you all too-just in case you didn’t get to see!!  Love seeing you all share your WIP’s of the bead along and of my kits and patterns…keep sharing to inspire us all!!  Here’s a look at those posts shared in the Klub!!

That will wrap up the review for the week of 8/1 through 8/7!!  Not too much going on, yet just enough to keep us all busy 😉.  I am enjoying creating patterns, making kits, and just beading along…I hope you all are enjoying yourselves and getting to do the things you love to do too!!  I have put up a tentative schedule for all my shows for rest of the year in case you want to come and see me or are visiting in my area…just scroll up and you’ll see it in the post somewhere ☺.  I hope everyone enjoyed last week’s review …I’m ready and running for the beads for a new week of bead adventures for this week, in which I’ll be back to share with you for next week!!!  Have a WONDERFUL Monday and the rest of the week!!
