Life is beautiful

Just wanted to posted a message to once again say I'm still here and am actually still coming up with silly ideas. I'm not able to torch them out right now but I am keeping track of them and hope to be able to soon.

In the meantime I've been doing other creative things and continue to enjoy each day as it comes. My latest fun project was making some simple crocheted necklaces that I'm now wearing as bracelets. Our local bead store, Ornamentea, posts these really quick and fun tutorials on their facebook page. This necklace one was just what I needed to break out some Jablonex seed bead mixes and the CLon-400 Tex Bead Cord I love from Marion Jewels in Fiber.

I'm a HUGE fan of Jablonex seed beads after having stumbled on their mixes at a bead store that was going out of business. They come in beautiful colors, are wonderfully consistent in size and color and look absolutely perfect in any design. The C-Lon Tex 400 Bead cord is absolutely wonderful. It comes in a HUGE array of colors now, works up and wears like a dream and just makes me feel good even looking at the spools in their boxes.

I'm sorry to say I don't have a picture of the necklaces at the moment but I'll do my best to update this post with pictures as soon as I can. In the meantime, I hope you're creating beautiful things where you are.

Here are a couple of pictures of what I've been working on. Sorry it took so long to add them but life's been bumping merrily along. :)
