BEAD SOUP BLOG PAR-TY-YIPEE!!

Good Morning Everyone!!
     What is the saying the 36th time is the charm??? I sure hope so!! I am experiencing technical difficulties!! I tried to set my blog up to post at 5:00 a.m. this morning and all heck broke loose. I must say Blogger and I do have a love/hate relationship- and-  I do get hiccups-and-  of course my blog had to choose Lori Anderson's Bead Soup Blog Party to get those hiccups!... Well let's hope this will all be  behind us and my blog will save and I will be able to post it...NOW ON WITH THE SHOW:
     
          Welcome to my Bead Soup Party Page!! The hostess of the Bead soup blog Party is the  wonderful and ever-so-helpful Ms. Lori Anderson! Being a newbie to the party I cannot say enough about how well executed, and easy to follow everything has been. You can follow this link and it will take you to all the other participants of the party and their lovely creations: http://lorianderson-beadsoupblogparty.blogspot.com/
              Now let's talk about that necklace up there!! This is the necklace I made with all the ingredients my  BSBP partner, Anitra sent me. I decided to Crochet all the beads into a necklace and then wrapped the Crocheted beads in Burgundy Greek Leather And  Varigated Hand Spun Silk. I made a Lariat Design with the toggle clasp Anitra Sent me, and accented the toggle with the focal bead and some beaded charms that I made.I  made a charm out of the butterfly Anitra sent and included it half way down the toggle Accent.
              My partner Anitra is From North Carlolina , and I had a great time getting to know her and becoming friends with her during this whole creative process. You can find her blog at: http://www.leelucreations.blogspot.com/.
.....ok now, I am going to stop while I am ahead because I almost lost this whole thing again while trying to add a photo of Anitra's beads when she sent them to me. I will post that photo seperately.
                       THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VISITING!! 
You can visit my shoppe at: http://www.clarityofpurplesage.artfire.com/ ( I am in the process of revamping and restocking so please check back within a week for all new Fall additions !! :)

New Blog, New Givaway!!!

Blue Hawaii from the side...
                                                        Blue Hawwaii from the front...


 Hi There all you Rockin' Chickadees!!
       Ok. here it is, this ring is the first in my new line of Funky and Fun Cocktail Rings. Cocktail rings are meant for just that, to wear on occassion, for a special time, a fun time, and these rings have been very much designed with that in mind. They are not meant to be worn while playing hard, or in the shower, swimming, or to bed at night, or while operating the jack hammer, or digging up those nasty neglected weeds...these rings are meant to be worn when you are going out to a club with your best girls, or to a party with your special guy, or to your bestie's wedding, or to your parents wedding anniversary, or to that special invite you have recieved to take a ride on a yacht with a "special someone"... I think you know where I am heading with this...they are not meant for you to wear while making mud pies with your little sweet pea, or while kneading the bread dough for tonight's dinner, or while giving Mr. T, your Irish Wolf Hound a bath... O.k.??? Ok. :D  So without further ado, I give you "Blue Hawaii" the first ring of a whole series to come!!
         NOW FOR THE FUN PART:
                  I will  be giving Blue Hawaii  away to one lucky follower!! The contest starts with this post and will run for the week of  9/5/11 - 9/10/11. All you have to do to enter for a chance to win the ring is leave a comment on my new design for the blog, and become a follower. (If you are already a follower than just leave a comment,  please!!)  I will draw the winner from random.com on Saturday, 9/10/11 at  5:00 pm. EST.
                                                        GOOD LUCK!!

Bead Soup Simmering Away...

  Good MorningTo All !!

          Well It is about time- my blog has finally made it to the other side of reconstruction!! So from here we will start building the days of fun and givaways and get this blog rolling!! I cannot thank every single person enough for remaining patient with me...I promise you will not regret it!!!
          O.k.now for the fun.... my partner in the beadsoup with Lori Anderson is Anitra! Anitra is a really nice gal and she is planning her wedding- Isn't that so exciting?? Here is her blog-  http://www.leelucreations.blogspot.com/  please go check her out, you won't be sorry!!
          So now, without further ado here  is a photo of what I sent to Anitra for the Challenge, I hopeshe is happy with it...ok now before you start thinking how awful that photo is- I did it on purpose, so Anitra wouldn't really be able to make it out if she was visiting...Hee Hee hee. After she gets her pkg. I will postbetter photos, promise. Basically I sent her some Leopard Jade beads along with some polymer charms,  flowers and a focal that I have made, along with a  toggle clasp that I also made...Hope she likes it!! I can't wait to see what she thinks...
