1 Marvelous Monday

This weekend was a BEAD-A-THON!!  I had so much to work on and so much I wanted to get done!  My first BIG project in a while was this Reggae bag.  Although it started as a custom order, it is now for sale in my studio.  I just  love it!!  With well over 100 hours of beading and over 8,500 beads this was truly a 'labor of love'.  I have simply fallen in love with this bag!  The details I added for the hair and the fringe at the top just pushed me over!!   What do you think???




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then there is my Creations Color Challenge entry.  The colors this week were Yellow and Red.... here is what I came up with.... I really like it!!


 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And then there is today's new listing - I figured I would list them all in order to make up for missing so many days of listing last week!  I just love this one too!  I have to say, I am really proud of my work lately.  I have learned some new techniques and have really gotten back into enjoying my beadwork.  I hope that is shows!

Again, I would like to tell everyone that this growth is directly related to my activity in the HOPS.  I would encourage everyone to get involved in HOPS, if you have time.  They are something that if you work them, they will work for you!  Just to show you how much, here are my numbers compared to the first of the year - before I was so active in the HOPS.....
