Collective Creative Canapé

Here, it is April 2, 2012, I am only one day late posting my photos for our swap. The first package of beads my partner sent me disappeared into a black hole at the post office. Karan Parker graciously sent out a 2nd swap package of beads to me which I received 8 days ago. Here is my "soup" from Karan.




And here is what I have created so far....I used a mix of beads I had on hand along with Karan's. I have been wanting to use the bone cat & fish forever!

the red coral along with the aqua coral Karan sent worked together for this ring & bracelet. I am still happily creating from this soup.
Thanks again to Keri Sereika for hosting the Collective Creative Canapé! Check out everyone's blogs for lots of gorgeous eye candy!

Bead Soup Blog Party Reveal

Image
It was my pleasure to be partnered with Jean A. Wells please be sure to check out her blog for some amazing pieces! Jean sent me some lovely ingredients for my soup. Here is her winning recipe. 1 handmade pendant created by the very talented Kylie Parry , 25 Brown Sugar beads, 1Fancy Floral Clasp, 1 Green Jasper Nugget, 6 10 mm wood roundelles, 2 Green Picasso Czech Bicone Beads, 5 Dark Forest Porcelain Beads by Ingrid, 8 8mm Fire Polish Topaz Beads and 8 8mm Topaz Crackle Beads. Here is what I created using her recipe. I hope you enjoy it.

I did a right angle weave with an assortment of the beads from my soup along with some Czech fire polish from my own collection. I made a little pair of earrings to match shown further below. The bracelet below was created with beads from the soup with the additi

Please visit her blog at The Studio Sublime Normally my work tends to be in contrasting color schemes rather than monochromatic shcemes. I enjoyed the challenge of creating a piece in varying shades of ORANGE!! I,love Orange it shouts out loud! What's your favorite crayon color? Be sure to look for your favorite color on Sally's blog where you will find a lot of very talented artists for your blog hopping pleasure! I call this "out of the swamp" any members of the "Gator Nation" out there? Since I used rather generic findings for the clasp, I dressed it up with a little Gator. The faceted rondelles were purchased from Lydia at Beedtime Bead Shop here in Ocala. The Preciosa crystals were acquired at Birdsong Beads in Andrews, NC on one of out many trips up to Murphy. There was no pattern for this bracelet, I just started beading in a right angle weave sort of way with some additi
