7th Bead Soup Reveal



Remember the Bead Soup sent to me by Rose Thorn ?


Now you will get to see the creations I made by adding a few goodies from my own collection and using the beads and findings she sent.



The cat clasp was just too precious to not be front and center !  The nice sheer ribbon was sent to me as a Christmas gift From Julie Panusis. It was the perfect accent for the large beads.  Here is a closer look.




There was a beautiful glass bead focal in the soup. Paired it up with a shiny silver background and it popped.  The colors matched a shell bead that I had created and the union was heavenly.  Also used the other clasp that was included in the soup.




I still had beads left to play with.  Rose was very generous !
I paired the pretty red glass beads with  a set of polymer clay beads I had recently created.

Matching bracelet

And since there were still beads rolling around in the tray .....
I decided to try my hand at adding beads to an applique and creating a choker . And some sassy earrings too !







Believe it or not there are still a few beads rolling around in the tray. It has been a fun month of exploring the options with this bead soup and letting my imagination run free. Thank You Rose for the wonderful bead soup !
Hope you  have enjoyed these.
