I took a class on the last day of BEADFEST which was a lot different for me.....give me some metal and I'm OK....but when I walked in (which the morning I over slept it must of been because we were catching some fun in Philly on South St. the night before) late.....Maria and the other students were gathering up their supplies. A little frantic from being late I apologized and began picking my colors, etc.....when I saw those seed beads (PANIC) OK what am I going to do with them....yeah I know I've used them in sewing and some jewelry but I was like oh no....seed beads......anyway Maria broke that fear! LOL!
I was able to finish the bracelet a couple of nights at home in the evening after the boys went to sleep. I learned so much in Maria Richmond 's class. It was such a pleasure to have been in her class and meet a lovely lady from Germany, who had flown all the way to Philly just to take these classes.....now that's amazing!! What a wonderful person!
I used some of my clay hearts, so much!
The charm with the birdie is from lovely friend from Germany! I love it!
Note all the buttons
That awesome camera charm!!!!!
Of course with all my work I add a number "9"
The lights.....hence the name of her class Leave the Lights On!
Love the leaves, the faces, the lights. I had such an awesome time in the class and all the new techniques of beading's and buttoning (which I have always had a thing for buttons) LOL! I hope you are having a great week...also don't forget to check out the ATC Sunday still going on..... HERE You can add old and new ATC links. THANK YOU!!!!! Happy Beading!! |

I have a thing for buttons, too! Am going to figure out how you did those buttons. That makes a fabulous bracelet! Just darling! Miss you!
What a fun bracelet! I love charm bracelets where the charms have meaning! That would have taken me DAYS- maybe even weeks - to finish! Sweet!
Thanks for sharing the photos and recipes - finally have a minute to check out your blog. Think I followed you on instagram but not sure yet - can't quite figure that program out yet. Keep up the great work!
