Lots to share!

My post is going to contain the result of that "AHA" I received the other day. It will include some other photos from some of my favorite and not so favorite works around my house.





Here is a hand painted and beaded fabric square and pillow. After seeing Sesga's neat little table I thought I would share what my visitors see when they walk through my front door (most of the time) I am not proud of the mess I make, but I am often very pleased with what emerges from this pile! Hope you enjoy the creativity and are inspired to create your own (even if it only starts out as a mess, like my table!)
Have a blessed day, Remember that He chose you before the earth was even formed to go forth and bear much fruit!

Love what you did with the tree. Those leaves were a great compliment. All your artwork is inspired.

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I love your creativity! I also homeschool my children. I'm still not sure what I am going to make in the mermaid swap. I have tried a few things and nothing has worked out right yet. I certainly am learning a lot, though!:-) Lori

The over the top Beaded Cogs Steampunk Style necklace I created for the Fashion Colorworks 2010 Beading Contest made it to the finals. You can go and rate the top ten from 1-5 here . Here are the fabulous photos my wonderful photographer (Thanks again BRAD!!!) took and while it was at his house his wonderful wife and president of the Dallas Bead Society got to prance around and wear it for the day. I told her she had to wear it for a whole day before she sent it home to me! He takes awesome photos!!! It wasn't the first time my beady friends have snagged it to wear for the day. One of them still claims it is a birthday gift that I haven't given to them yet. Thanks for stopping by!

Thank You

I want to thank everyone for your kind comments on "Effy' whether here or by email. I also want to thank everyone who has been encouraging me to pursue the many facets of beading as an art and a business. Who would have thought one thing could be so fulfilling in so many different facets. The result of having such encouraging friends is the developement of my very first pattern and kit. Beaded Cogs SteamPunk Style And there are four colorways. I have a limited number of kits right now but after I teach my first class I will be able to put together more. If you want more information you can leave a comment with your email and I will get back to you.

Beginning again.

I feel as if I am beginning again. However, I have so many things in place from when I really first began this creative journey. I am beginning again, but I am not starting from scratch. The trials of the past have given me perseverance I had not idea I possessed. I am still recovering from a major life change but I am allowing my life to become better and trying very hard to not become bitter... I am finding that I am not having to try so hard at it lately. I have hope. I have a new vision. I have wisdom to stop and pray. I have Grace. I have Mercy. And most of all, I have love. I have the love of so many sweet supporters and friends and family. People who constantly encourage me and remind me of why I create. Why I love to teach people. Why I get out of bed each morning. I have a commitment to stop and spend time with God and meditate each day with him on the creative process he has called me to. I had forgotten what peace and joy there is in that little bubble of medit...
