I have been working on this piece for sometime and today is the day, the day I think it is finally done and I can show it off. I really wanted to do a big artsy piece and although I had a lot of missteps and redo's, I am pleased with the results. I wore it to work the other day and not one person, not one single person commented....needless to say I was crushed. That night I went to bead night at our local beading store (my favorite one - Crimpz); running a little late most of the members were there already....when I walked in there was a collective gasp...and my ego was instantly restored....oh thank you all my beading friends, you made me feel so good!!! Hope you enjoy.

Yeah the party invite is out and I have signed in (I sure hope my sign in worked) for Bead Soup Blog Party Number 8. I am so excited....each year I get to add another dear friend to my list.  Last year my partner was Amy Severino and the soup she sent me took me to the winner's circle (3 times over), I think Amy was as proud as I was and deservedly so. The year before my wonderful friend Ginger showed me Japan and I continue to live vicariously through her, collecting awesome beach glass at equally awesome beaches. See why I am so excited!!!! Lori our brave hostess is really pushing her limits and I hope she knows we are all in her corner and wish her a speedy recovery. Thank you Lori, this is the event I wait for all year!!!!
