Triple wrap bracelet


Making this bracelet was so much more fun than watching the Broncos game Saturday night. Not that I don't enjoy watching a football game once in a while, but that was hardly a game. Better luck next year, Tebow and friends.

My best beading friend and neighbor (and Patriots convert--should have waited another year!), Deb, showed me how to make it. It takes a bit of time but it is really easy.



I'll be making more for sure! They would make great birthday/Christmas gifts.

Happy St. Patricks!

Here are some green earrings I'll be sporting today. I just made them on Tuesday. May the luck 'o the Irish be with you.

Coral + Grey



I'm going to enter this necklace in a bead contest. It is sort of on a whim. I'm soooo not a professional beader or even someone who does it regularly. This came as a kit with some of the beads but you are supposed to make whatever you want out of it. It is due to be turned in tomorrow so wish me luck!

My favorite part is the waxed linen chain


It can be worn long or short.

I *heart* Lillypilly



My friend and I went to a bead show on Saturday. My absolute favorite vendor was Lillypilly Designs. You can buy their beads and pendants on their site or at Art Beads. (Art Beads has a better selection.)



I made the necklace with one of their pendants. It is perfect for the summer and has a natural-relaxed-beachy feel. I also picked up 3 sets for earrings. The colors are fabulous. It was hard not to buy more.

The photos aren't the best since they are from my scanner. DH has the digital camera.
