Sunny Delight---yummy!

I worked most of Father's Day on this -- ignored the PaPa in the house--heh heh, and beaded--

well, i left him alone to watch tv, without bothering him, so it was okay! ;>)

I love this bracelet--if i wasn't retired and still wore a lot of my goodies- i'd keep it! Maybe someone else will like it, too-

Speaking of Vintage.....

Pearls and Crystals and Silver OH MY!!

After a long dry spell of not beadweaving for EBW Challenges--I finally got one entered again---there are always so many beautiful entries--I'm never disappointed even if I don't get many votes! It's such eye-candy!

My entry is a pearl bracelet--beadwoven after many hours of designing, ripping out, breaking needles....but I was on a mission! ;>) The pearls were so expensive--but I had the silver toggle and hand charm in my stash--even had the strong nymo, beadalon and crimps in my stash! But those pearls---I fell in love with them, so along with them and the heart toggle and the hand charm--it's a bracelet I would want to wear if I were getting married---no--I'm not---It'll be 46 yrs in August--first and only wedding for me! heh heh

I'm babbling when I should be putting beads away and settling down for the night--so here's the bracelet....

My beady brain idea....

Whilst ;>) doing a crossword puzzle, i figured---how would this look in a bracelet? Off to the bead store to get black and white cube beads, figure out my pattern and this is what I came up with....

Dry Spell Over---I'm hoping! ;>)

okay, I'm hoping I'm over the beadweaving dry spell- just listed a fringey bracelet- Fins and Feathers--on etsy.

She's happy, and now I'm working on the second one---

Special Person's Day
