I signed up for Lori Anderson’s 7th Bead Soup Blog party and my reveal date us April 13. My partner is Miranda Ackerley who runs MirandackArts. Â Miranda obviously takes these bead swaps seriously because she sent me SO MUCH STUFF. Â I mean, they had to drive a truck up to my house (only kidding).
Lots of stones
Some beautiful crystals
Chain and some metal stampings
Some semi precious beads
Some glass and shell beads
And a lovely focal and clasp.
Here’s what I sent Miranda
A sterling clasp I made
Some vintage buttons, leaf dangles and chain
Some of my small lamp worked beads and tumbled glass shards
And a focal set I made from glass my friend Sandeye  gave me.
And that’s not all; I was interviewed by a new on-line called line magazine A Garden Life,  about the jewelry I made from sidewalk finds and found objects.
