Necklace SOLD!
Today I finished this gorgeous metallic green necklace and earring set. The beads were just so unique I had to make something with them as soon as I brought them home.

Bead Store Shipment
The hand and feet forms from the bead store arrived today. Unfortunately, both are childlike in size, so nothing fits them. I think I'll take pictures of the hand bracelets on the foot form, so that you can see the shape of it and clearly see the color and how it lays, but also take the first picture on my hand (for now), so that the first picture people see is on a hand. That way people won't look at the first picture and assume that they're bare foot sandals. I still like the forms, they're very artistic, and I think I'll put them around the house as decoration.

Posting
Goodness, I haven't posted in over a week! It's because I'm perfecting the handflowers I'm making, and since every one takes about 5 hours, it takes quite some time to work the kinks out of a new design. On the bright side, I ordered 3 new beading books from amazon (their prices are So Good!), one of which I got used for $9.50, which is quite a bit better than $23 retail!
I also found out that the ceramics store nearby is also a bead store, so I'll be stopping by today :)

HandFlower/Slave Bracelet
I've been looking for inspiration, and finally found some this weekend. Today I created a Hand Flower/Slave Bracelet that I'm really happy with.
Hour Two
Hour Five
I'm trying to decide if I should sell this one or not. I want to keep it because it's my first one, but after spending 5 hours on it, I feel like I should try and get paid for all that time. Maybe I'll just call it my pattern ;) Now I just need to get more silver bugle beads. Oh, and note to self: 4 yards of beading line, Not 2. 5 if I want to make this into a necklace. Maybe make it a layer deeper too.
