This brisk weather has definitely been enhancing my beading time!! I started a 'Beauteous Bangle' over the weekend.
I think it's funny how wonky these things start out but end up nice and structured (like the blue and brown one in the background!)! I hope to finish tonight.
I celebrated 400 posts last week! I still can't believe it. To commemorate the milestone, I'm giving away a copy of Jane Lock's The Art of Beadweaving. Just head over to that post and leave a comment and your name will be entered for a chance to win. I'm going to draw the name on Friday of this week.
And speaking of giveaways, over on the Bead-It-Forward site, I'm holding a contest for animal themed pattern submissions. The winner will receive at least two tutorials (one from me, of the above Beauteous Bangle tutorial, and one from NEDbeads), some seed beads, a sheet of Lacy's Stiff Stuff, a package of needles, and animal charm and more!
If you are so inclined, please check it out and send in an animal pattern!
The weather's been so bipolar the past few days! Freezing cold then mild and pouring rain....today started warm now it's cold......
