A bit of Bead Soup

I am so excited to be able to get crafting now that I have my bead soup.  My partner Cory sent along a lovely parcel of beads for me to play with for Lori Anderson's Bead Soup Blog Party. 





I love, love, love the copper toggle.  I am not sure which focal I will use, I do love the handmade peyote bail made by my partner.  She packaged everything so nice and included this handmade embellishment pictured below.  I do have to say that these beads are of a much larger scale than I would usually choose for myself.  This is the spirit of the challenge though and I welcome the opportunity to try to create something outside of my creative box. 


        
   

Here is the reveal of the beads I sent her.  We are allowed to show off what we sent once they have been received. 




Keep following along and before you know it the blog hop will be upon us!

Cheers,

Rhea

  1. Oh FUN! Those beads have a nice, neutral tone to them so you can add just about anything to them to make it more you. I'm excited to see the reveal!

  4. I can't wait to see what you do with the soup mix you received! I wonder if you could make a book embellishment like the one on your Holiday Junque Journal. That doughnut is gorgeous and would make a cool toggle-type book closure.

  6. Very earthy selection, it will be interesting to see what you do with these since they are outside your norm. Just what BSBP is all about.
