Well, the secret is out!!  Yesterday I finally showed off the 'big' project I was working on... who saw it?  Who was surprised at WHAT it was??  I am already planning another one... this one with a ______ logo on it (no, I am not going to tell you)!!  I also have been working on more earrings.....ooohhh, let's show one of those off today!?!?!  

I hope your day is wonderful and full of sunshine and beads (or whatever your inspiration is from)!! 

As a side note, for any of you who know me personally, I move fast.  I don't mean just beading, I mean I always seem to be 'going' and I often get very clumsy because of it!!  Why am I telling you this?  I thought I would show off my latest 'mishap'! 

DO you see anything wrong with the 'pinky' toe?  It is completely broken!!  When I first kicked my bead tray - yes that is how I broke it - it was sticking straight out to the side....I reset it and now, the whole foot is swollen and sore!  Good thing I have BEADING (which means sitting) planned for the next couple of days!!

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

 Yes, I have a new listing for today!  This one is 3 different shades of Swarovski Crystal woven together with some Glass Pearls and Stainless Steel beads.  This is one of those bracelets that looks like a MILLION dollars but doesn't cost that much!!  Talk about showing off your love of PURPLE!!

I have another project that wasn't listed (it was a custom order) but it WAS watched closely!!  I am really surprised that none of you guessed this one!!  For me, that is a thrill, that means I did something totally original and totally a surprise!!!  So, here it is!!

 

 And here is the 'making of' video if you want to see how it all came together!!

Now these earrings are a new listing for today too, but I wanted to show you where they came from!!! These great blue and white beads were from my Prima Blog Team 'tis the season' collection!!  Yep, aren't they wonderful??  I had so much fun making these, they are just wonderful to look at!  These are the ONLY things that came from the supplies that I am going to sell, the rest will be given away in the next few weeks!! SO keep coming back and watch for ways to win - the wont ALL be given away via a 'give-a-way', some of them will just be given to random commenter's on my blog posts!

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

So, I finished my FLASK.... uummm, what does that mean?  I get to start a new project!!  This one will be a bracelet - well, actually bracelets!!  You'll get to watch two bracelets grow at the same time!!  You'll understand as it gets going!! So come on over and watch the creation grow on my Fan Page or Google+ page throughout the day !!

Most of you know that I finished one give-a-way yesterday, but did you realize that I also started another one??  Here you goooooo....

Now today, I have a very special featured artist; Ravishing-Beauty-LLC.  I have the honor and privilege to watch the lady that has started this company grow up.  She has always been a very talented young lady and I am very proud to personally endorse her products.  I have actually used her new creations and I have to say - WONDERFUL!!  Right now she is just 'kicking' things off, but I can already tell that she will be a huge success!!  Just look at these creations.... no, they aren't food, they are for your beauty routine!! The creations in the red and white photo - LIB BALM!!!  The photo with the lemons - Body SCRUB (which I personally LOVE).  Run over and LIKE her FaceBook Fan page and follow her on twitter, you'll get to see each of her new creations as she posts them!!

Today I want to leave you with this thought;

Don't wait until everything is just right.  It will never be perfect.  There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions.  So what.  Get started now.  With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
