LOL @ myself

While cleaning up after finishing my last project, I thought I should sort the flippies & odd beads & stuff on my bead cabinet as well & guess what I found underneath some STUFF..

A bracelet that I had finished somewhere back around Christmas time ~grin~

This was done in 2 drop peyote with a row of gorgeous purple swarovski sequins (?) stitched down the centre & fringing on the sides & either side of the crystals


It really is dainty and looks great on as you can see.
Maybe I should clean my bead cabinet up more often LOL

The Muse is done..

It took me longer than I had planned to do my Bead the Muse piece.

We have been short one person at work & as we are a small facility with a small staff the rest of us picked up a few extra hours until we found a replacement - it sure ate into my beading time but my next cheque should be good :)

Here is a wee tease for my entry in this contest & the whole piece will be revealed next week after Scarlett announces the winner.

Use the Muse Contest

Scarlett Lanson of The Beader's Muse has a Contest going on her site info here

I signed up for it & have my kit - I have to say Scarlett is really fast at getting the kits out, I think mine arrived with in 3 days of ordering it!

This is an interesting challenge & I did it mainly because I don't make much jewelry & this has pushed me to make something.

I found out about this contest from Liz but over on FaceBook & Liz already has hers done!!

The ideas behind this contest is that we must use the MUSE which is part of a kit Scarlett has put together - I have managed to get the Muse looking how I envisaged it so now it is just beading, beading, beading & you know I LOVE to do that!

We are allowed to share a tease of the piece so I will do that when I get finished!
