It has been a while since I have been able to talk with you but know that I have not stopped beading. I have had to take some time to handle some of the little curves that life tends to hit us with every once in a while. However, every night I work on my therapy...BEADING!
As you may have noted I have made and posted some Holiday themed earings and boxes on my shop. Additionally, I have some rings, necklaces, bracelets, for the
Holiday shoppers at Land of Local Treasures in Manfield Center. If you find yourself on the eastern end of Connecituct stop by Land of Local Treasures and check out all the treasure finds!
I feel very fortunate that some of my frequent buyer customers at work have also been ordering pieces for gift giving. This has been good as I am trying to put together the mula needed to go home (the Island) for the Holidays! As my parents age I find it more important than ever to spend as much time as I can with them, especially for the Holidays. They visit my son and I every summer and stay two to three months with us but they have a really hard time with the idea of traveling north in the winter! Can't say that I blame them, although I have to tell you I love New England and its beautiful nature art shows that come with the changes of the seasons. As I freeze in January and February I fortify my spirit with the reminder that if it was not for this cold I would not be able to enjoy the wonders of spring, warmth of summer or the colors of fall in New England.
I have been working on some dramatic pieces. This picture to your left is of the piece that I am working on right now. This beautiful hibiscus will be encased with black and silver beads with a dramatic frame of shinny bright red delica beads. I think it will be stunning. I like it and hope you do to. Please let me know what you think.
I will post a picture of the final product as soon as I am done.
Below you can take a look at a finish peace. Am not sure yet what I will call this piece but I will tell you that it is very close to my heart. I have spend a lot of time on it and have become very fond of it. I am not sure that I will be able to part with it. What do you think?
