Not much to say

The weather is finally getting nice, which always helps the mood. Winter just gets me in a blue funk. My next door neighbor's daffodils are blooming and my crocus' are showing their long green leaves.

I've been doing a lot of beading these days. Keeps me from going insane thinking how difficult it is proving to be to find a job in the medical transcription field. I've also been making some polymer clay faces using push molds. I have these metallic powders that you can brush on the faces before baking. I also found a great use for some of my small Swarovski flat backs. Here is a picture of some of the faces I've done recently.As you can see on the larger blue one, I've placed a Swarovski flat back in the corner of the eye. Here are a few pictures of the beading I've done recently.
This one hasn't been named yet but, I've had some suggestions from some of the ladies on a couple of the Yahoo bead groups I'm a member of. Suggestions have been 'Meditation', 'Serenity', and 'Feeling Blue'. I think I'm leaning towards Feeling Blue.

This one is called 'Silver Sun'. I really liked the way she turned out.

This is a 4.71" wide by 4.32" high beaded tapestry. There are over 7000 beads in it. I really enjoyed designing this one and loved watching it come together row by row.


This is another tapestry designed and beaded by me called 'Woman'. She is 5.02" high by 5.39" wide.

Well, that's pretty much it, I'm off to go and watch a new episode of Ghost Whisper....I'm so glad that the writer's strike is over, I missed my shows.

Night all & happy beading!
