Hello & Happy Friday!!! ☀️ How is everyone doing?!?! Anyone working on something special or doing something special?!?! I have been going to lots of shows-last week to Riverside Arts Market and this weekend to the Gainesville Downtown Art Fest (https://www.gainesvilledowntownartfest.net/) & working on projects in between😉. Since I was not able to do the blog last week, this weeks will be a combo of last weeks with this week’s 😁. These past two weeks, I have had some awesome things going on!!..like the bead-along in my K~Max Klub (it started last Friday & as of now, all 3 set of rows have been added to be able to complete the bead-along)😃. Also have a few new listings, WIP’s happening and of course there is the Peyote Bracelet in a Box kit for October-TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO GRAB UP THIS KIT!!! How about we get a start on it?!?!
Do you all remember the WIP I was working on Two weeks ago on Friday?!?! Did you all get to see when I finished it up last Monday/Tuesday?!?! Well, if you don’t remember I will be showing some of the working pictures and then later I’ll be sharing that listing with you! After finishing that up I started the sample for the bead-along for my K~Max Klub. Last Wednesday I started the 3 color pattern but unfortunately I didn’t keep track of the rows or bead counts…however I can show you all some of the working photos of the progress of it being made and then finished. Beautiful ❄️‘s for the upcoming season😃. This one unfortunately will not be up for a listing because it ALREADY SOLD!!!😍.
LAST CHANCE TO GRAB UP THE OCTOBER KIT!!! I have brought back my Monthly Peyote Bracelet Kits!!! For October, I bring to you this bright and fun ‘Flower’ peyote bracelet pattern. This pattern is Even count and it is 2 drop peyote stitch!! With each kit, each box will contain everything you need to create a Krafty Max Originally designed bracelet: A printed word chart (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 October 6, 2021 until November 5, 2021 and then Kits will be mailed on or by November 15, 2021. A little FYI about kits…The PATTERN is ONLY available with this kit!! Delica Bead colors are subject to changes.
Now it is time to show you the new listings from last week😉. The first one is called ‘Turquoise Chinese Dragon’ Beadwoven Wearable Art Necklace and the 2nd one is called ‘Red-Tiger Jasper’ Beadwoven Wearable Necklace. Both necklaces are beautiful and stunning in their own way and each are perfect to wear anytime of the year. Each one would make perfect gifts to that someone special😉. Check them out…what do you think of them?!?!
Next up, the WIP’s from this week!! The first one I started was air a beautiful purple stone. The first few days was spent on building up the walls with my Delica 11/0 seed beads thick enough that the stone wouldn’t slip out of it-did you all see how thick this stone is?!?! When I got it thick enough I then started grabbing my 15/0 seed beads to start tightening up around the back then the front of the stone. Wednesday I didn’t get to bead much at all because I was down and out with a really bad headache for most of the day. During the evening hours and on Thursday is when I worked on the simple herringbone strap and making the hanger for the necklace. By the time Thursday night came around, I did manage to finish up the necklace completely except for adding the findings and getting the final pics done…that will be up for next week😉 but I will show you the working photos of this beauty and also show you what I started for today!! I got a little started on a small cab with a wonderful image of a colorful tree and butterfly. I got the wall started and will continue to bead and see where the day takes me…REMEMBER, that you can check out my Facebook Fan Page, Google+ Page, or my Instagram Page throughout the day to watch updates and working photos!
Let’s go to the new listing for this week!! It is none other than the ‘Blue Lace’ Beadwoven Wearable Art Necklace that I finished last week! I was able to get the findings on and get the final photo shoot done-and I must say it turned out stunningly and would be perfect for anytime of the year for that someone special or even as a gift to oneself 😉. It is a wearable art necklace that will give the wearer that final ‘Wow’ look for their outfit!! Check it out!!
Recently, I decided to go through my shop and see what is left of the ‘Available Past Kits’! Now, remember, that there are very limited quantities left of them and that they have been discounted from my original kit prices!! What is left of them can be seen in a collage below and most of them have at least 1kit left to maybe 2 at the most!! Once these are gone, that’s it and they willl not be seen again!! So take a look and hurry and grab those that you like while you still can before being completely gone!!
Time for a quick update/news from my K~Max Klub!! The complete Bead-along is now posted on our Klub page, but if you have difficulties trying to find it, it should also be in the file tab on our page!! Has anyone started and have something to show?!?! If so-post a picture/s of what you have so far!! Let’s see how creative you all get with this one-I know it is only 3 colors but I’m sure someone might get a little creative with it😁. I hope you all enjoy it and have fun with it and show it off for everyone to see!!
Phew….that was a lot!!! I can’t believe how busy I have been lately 😊. It’s been real fun going to all these shows-remember this weekend I’ll be at the Gainesville Downtown Art Fest showing my work and meeting lots of people-maybe you’ll be one of them?!?! Anyways, I hope you all have a great weekend and I’ll be back more next week!!
