Start of brainstorming for Bead Soup |
It has been awhile since mom and I have done anything bead, metalsmithing, or torching related and I was jonesing to work in the studio. Mom and I started our brainstorming session of what we wanted to do with the goodies for our Bead Soup pieces. Oh, so you know, we have the goodies in the laundry room because Lily was trying to make off with the bag of goodies, so had to move the goodies to a place she is not allowed into. This is the first layout of the goodies, mom got our beading trays out and we started breaking down what we liked and didn't like. I am showing you the start because I nixed this idea and we came up with a different one for this piece. We finally came up with ideas for three pieces and got the pieces on the beading boards to begin the putting together process.

Today I wanted to enamel but I am sort of feeling like the woman in the photographs. I have felt sort of off all week, but yesterday I really started to feel bad. As Erin, of Treasures Found, calles it "The Crud". I have a stuffy nose, sore throat and (not sure how to explain it) a heaviness in my chest. So, overall, I feel like crud. I am taking mom's advice and I am not going to work in the garage today, though I really want to.

Hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI woke up yesterday with a tickle in my throat - sure hope it doesn't amount to anything more.
I'm so sorry you don't feel well! Although I do wish we had snow here. Last year this weekend we had over a foot!
ReplyDeleteI am so familiar with hiding things from my cat. Gracie is a sneaky thief. She will come and rub on me and purr and then just sit and wait for me to be distracted and off she goes with whatever new thing I have on the table. My sewing room is totally off limits to her and she hates that. Whenever she can she sneaks in there and wreaks havoc.
ReplyDeleteLove, love , love the winter wonderland necklace with those beautiful beaded snowflakes!!!
Hope you get better quick. I have been keeping the Zicam and Airbourne handy, my daughter brought something home yesterday. I don't want it!
Oh baby I am feeling bad for you! I still can't believe that gorgeous winter wonderland necklace! I love the captive robin too! Stay warm and snug lots of vitamin C and feel better!!!!!!
