BSBP

Here are the reveal photos from my Bead Soup Blog Party project. YES, it is late. I can't offer any one rational excuse. Suffice to say that I've been a bit busy.

Green ceramic beads on the upper right-hand side are by Pottery Girl 1, here's her etsy shop.
That fab bronze clay toggle and ladybug charm are by Thea Too, here's her etsy shop.
The polymer clay floral focal is by Rebekah Payne of Tree Wings Studio. Here's her studio blog.

Again, apologies for the late reveal. I was having a lot of fun, if that makes it any better!
Now I'm going to pour a glass of wine and go hop around to the other blogs!

See my original pile of goodies here.

  1. Your necklace is beautiful. Are those green porcelain beads by Ingrid Mueller. They look like a design of hers. I love the way the back of your necklace is tied on leather and the front is beaded. Great job!

  40. It made me laugh after watching the Youtube, to see that you do like I do, and have 76,340 ideas to begin with, that you don't use in the final product! In any case, it came out well. You should be pleased.

    ReplyDelete

  42. You have done a great job with the layout of the pieces and the colors would have been difficult for me to work with, but you did wonderfully.
