I hope that you had a wonderful St Patrick’s day and weekend. I was ‘off the grid’ for a few days again last week, but… with luck… I am back! There are so many things I want to tell you about, but I have to space my announcements…. just a little!!
First I would like to show you the wonderful Bead Swaps that I have been given. I am part of the Artfire Beadweavers Guild. This wonderful guild is really picking up their activity level. And part of that is the Artfire Beadweavers Guild 1st Bead Swap. This is a fun event, with 16 members participating. The basics of a swap, Each Partner sends a mix of beads and findings to the other. They post and tell all about making their creations and then post the final products on a specific date. Here are my swaps and the swaps I sent:
1st Partner – Ms Bonnie at Bonnies Other Place. Here is what I sent her –
Just a little bit of red? I know, but as I was gathering it just called to me!! I couldn’t help it!!
And here is what I got from her!!!!
Now, my 2nd partner is Georgia Mountain Arts over at Capturing Your Essence. Here is the group of beads I sent her –
And what I received –
How much fun is this???

Love the Creation Color Challenge Group project! Going over there to get inspired! I am glad you like my choices of bead swap. The glass fused piece is one I fused in my home studio kiln.
