New things to add to My Etsy




I now have a link to my Etsy shop, http://beaded2bless.etsy.com/. I will be adding these two little jewels to it today. I sold the fork I had listed there this week, so now I must replace it with a new one. Here it is..


It has a plum colored dyed blister pearl as the top focal bead and a large faceted turquoise flower bead for the center focal, The purple pearl is adds a little movement, and the frame at the bottom that says "cry out to Jesus". I also have my first little beaded doll that has this phrase on it and I carry it in my purse always. The frame is secured with wire and the tines of the fork.



The next piece is an altered domino using Technique Tuesday stamps. On the front are Love birds stamped and painted and on the back are hearts with swirls. It has a chain that is about 18 inches. Linked to the chain are copper "sequins" and turquoise swarovsky bicones and these neat little copper colored faux pearls.


I met the mother of the lady who bought the first fork I showed here. She was sent by her daughter to purchase another one of my items- a beaded doll in an altered tin. What a blessing it was to meet her! After talking with her I have decided to put together a few kits to make some beaded dolls. I also talked with a lady on BAD who was dissatisfied with a kit she purchased- I know I can create a lovely kit with well made doll forms, so be looking for that in my etsy shop soon.

I have had a blessed day and I sincerely hope you have too. Blessings to you and to your family from our Father in Heaven who loved you before He created the earth.

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...

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.
