Bead Soup arrival

My bead soup from Heidi of Ex Post Facto Jewelry


She sent some very lovely vintage components.

I am so lucky, she gave them up to send to me! I love vintage, but I have trouble using the pieces I find. I always think I will never find that piece again, so I just hoard them.

I will have so much fun working with some of Heidi's vintage stash, Thank you Heidi.

Please hop on over to Lori’s blog to see the list of all bead soup blogs.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Bead Soup Blog Party #4

Bead Soup headquarters: Lori's blog http://lorianderson-beadsoupblogparty.blogspot.com/

My bead partner Christine Hendrickson of The Clay Chick, sent me a fun assortment of beads.

The dark brown ceramic ones Christine made herself.

I added very few beads to what she sent. I did add some brass beads for a mix of silver and brass and a silk ribbon of recycled silk. I made a brass hook for the necklace and used the silver toggle Christina sent in the bracelet. I didn't use the coin shaped shell beads from my soup but have a few ideas of what I am going to do with them.

Please stop by The Clay Chick to see what Christine made with the mix I sent her.

You are also invited to stop by my jewelry blog, it was being moved to a new host at the time of the sign up so was down for a while.http://www.prairieemporium.com/ My farm and family blog is glad you are here and have a great weekend of blog hopping.
