8th Bead Soup Blog Party

My bead soup was sent today. It looks like this. I hope my dear partner Siobhán Keogh of Vovs Jewellery will like its taste.


Google Maps tells me that I can drive to Ireland to deliver it and that it will take me one day and four hours to travel 2,800 km.


I trust the post. It will arrive safe.

Back To Beading/Regressei às criações

Hello, dear readers.  I am back to beading and blogging too.  Some blogs that I used to follow have not been updated for some time too. Is everybody only on Facebok and Instagram? Do people still write on blogs? What programme or application do you use to read blogs? Are there are blog hops in the coming months? I would like to participate but I do not know about any this year or even next year.  I am sure though that I want to join Bead It Forward though next year. For those who do not know, Bead It Forward is an annual event in which beaders contribute with small squares stitched in peyote that will be put together in quilts which are later auctioned being its revenue directed to breast cancer research.  The following creations include pendants handmade by Majoyoal , artistic name for Mari Carmen Rodriguez, who currently has a Etsy shop.

Autumn Colours

Image
Hello, dear readers! Today I would like to share a necklace in Autumn colours that I've just made using the gorgeous ceramic pendant from the talented Spanish artist Majoyoal (Mari Carmen Rodriguez Martinez). Besides the artisan ceramic pendant, I have used Czech faceted glass beads, Indian glass beads and Chinese crystal beads. The clasp is plain but easy to use. I have had this pendant for about two years but only now I have had the inspiration to create something interesting with it. I am entering this creation featuring Majoyoal pendant in the October Challenge of ArtBeadScene  which has the Dragonfly Lamp by Émile Gallé as inspiration piece. "Dragonfly Lamp" By Émile Gallé, late 1800's- early 1900's French Art Nouveau, Cameo Art Glass Enjoy the day!

Some October Makes

Hello, dear readers!  I would like to share with you my latest makes. A set of four Swarovski crystal necklaces for a friend (I love crystals but not so much in jewellery) My participation in the Operation Tackle That Bead Stash  (I really have used only items in my stash) October challenge dedicated to Fireworks. It is the Fairground Attraction Pendant designed by the much talented Liz Reed, made in teal and green. Three Beaded Squares for Bead-It-Forward 2017 whose theme is Fantasy. Isn't the elf the most adorable thing?  What have you been making? Have you started thinking about Christmas gifts? Please share in the comments. PS Maybe it's not an elf but one of the 7 dwarfs from Snow White. I'm not sure anymore.
