New! New! New!

The top piece I've called "Lattice". I created it with dark plum, palladium plated and black Delicas. It's 1.25" wide and 7.75" long and I used an antique looking button for the toggle.


The second piece I've called "Fall". I was looking through the colors for Fall/Winter and fell in love with them! I've used light orange, matte lavender and deep sea teal. It's just under 1.25" wide and 7.5" long and used a beaded toggle.



Wait till you see the one I'm working on now!!

Check These Out!

Did you see the Bead Art Originals Items of the Week?? Gorgeous!

I also have two more new cuffs and working on another! I just have to get pictures taken!

Two Latest Cuffs

Here are the latest cuffs (Enchanted Forest and Black to Blush) I've created and listed in my Etsy shop!

Made and Sold

This is a cuff I just recently created. I was lazy and didn't get it listed but happily, I have sold it without it being listed! My husband's step-mother fell in love with it and bought it straight off! YAY!

Many Apologies

I just wanted to apologize to my Entrecard friends! I switched over to the newest version of Firefox and now my EC toolbar no longer works. I checked to see if they have an updated version of the toolbar on Entrecard, but nothing yet. So, if you're feeling like I'm neglecting you, it's not intentional! I really want to visit all my favorites, but I can't seem to find everyone as easily as I did with my toolbar! Hopefully, Entrecard will get a newer version of the toolbar up and running very soon!

BAO Item of the Week and Stretchy Bracelets

Have you checked out the Bead Art Originals Items of the Week yet? What are you waiting for? Check them out on our blog:

Here are the stretchy bracelets I've completed for my step-mother. She loves these and I thought I'd throw in some special ones. I've included 5 made with Swarovski pearls and several bundles in Japanese triangle beads which have a nice sparkle to them.

What I've Finally Accomplished!

It took quite a while, but I finished my purple cuff and completed over 100 little bracelets. I'm still making more of the little bracelets, but at least I've gotten some things completed! It's all a step in the right direction!

Top Droppers for July

I can't believe July is already over! Thank you to my top 10 droppers!

Some Updates

Have you checked out the Bead Art Originals Items of the Week? Please do because there are amazing pieces to be seen and some specials to be found! Check all of them out at the blog: Bead Art Originals.

I am still working on the purple cuff. Ok, I'll admit it, it's taken a back seat to the simple stretchy bracelets I'm making for my step-mother. But the little bracelets have been very therapeutic. I've finished 82 of them! I know I need to just put the simple bracelets aside and finish the cuff, it's almost halfway there!

As weird as it sounds, school events have gotten busy! Tonight was a parents' meeting for the parents of all fall athletes. It's still July, but the football team and the cheerleaders started practices in June and the soccer teams and the golf teams started early in July. So, they really aren't fall sports! Anyway, the paper work for school has started...the triplicate forms, the emergency cards, the code of conduct and photo releases all have to be filled out!

Life keeps moving forward whether I am ready or not, so I am hanging on!
