Feast your eyes upon the bead soup goodness that I got from my swap partner, Cheryl Brown...
She's a ceramic AND lampwork artist and she fired up her torch for these glass babies!
Check out the awesome focal beads AND that awesome glass toggle clasp! You drooling yet?
You can look but you can't touch! Bwhaha!
You might want to wipe that drool off your keyboard...
I asked her to challenge me with color and she sure did! I'm super excited to work with all these yummy beads and I'm already envisioning earrings, a bracelet and a necklace for the reveal. Here's to hoping I can get to them all in time!
Thanks Cheryl!
















Simply stunning! And might I add GENEROUS! That's a big bowl of soup, you lucky girl!!

*pats keyboard dry carefully* Well, hmm, yes, that, that is delicious soup! Don't mind if I stare for a bit longer.... just a ... bit.

Oh You got such awesome beads. I love that little girl bead from Cheryl. I named her - Little miss Sunshine.
So looking forward to see what you create with them.
The beads you sent her are also stunning. Take care. Dita.

Those vibrant oranges just make me drool! Love the flowers, and the clasp is awesome. Can't wait to see what you cook up with it!
