A Bead Soup one hit wonder~

Sherry sent me some
beautiful beads with which to play.

(and some perfectly stitched Sunshine earrings)
(and no, you can't have them!)


But...um...
The soup colors?
 A major challenge for me.

I've only gotten one necklace/earring set made so far,
and I'm about to tell you why.


I spent a whole lot of time staring at the beads


and then I spent a whole lot more time
digging through my seed beads
to find some additional shades
for the shading the crazy lace
cab called for


before finally deciding
I don't even own the right shades.
And that my friends,
is saying something.


So I did my best in spite of myself.

And the second person who saw it
bought it.

I *love* that people are so different.

And so awesome.

(I'm not even a rule breaker this time.)
(I used the clasp!)


As always, many heartfelt thanks to 
the magnificent Lori Anderson McDaniel
for hosting another Bead Soup Extravaganza.
You're a peach!

I can't wait to see what Sherry Stokey
made with the soup I sent.
Let's go take a peek,
K?

And if you want to take a creatively
awesome journey with me,
you will find the complete list
of all participants in
round 2
HERE.
