Lori Anderson of Pretty Beads has extended my Cup Bead Soup Artist for the month of August into September – yay! And here is her first creation. She has made a beautiful chandelier pull – it never occured to me to make them out of hollow beads:

Well, life has been pretty busy lately. Between my daughter’s volleyball tryouts and getting ready for The Artists for a Cause show, I haven’t had much time to update my blog. Anyway, I just made my very first Etsy sale! And to commemorate the event :-), here is a picture of the package going to my very first Etsy customer – Thank you Shoshana!
I will be participating in the 2010 Artists for a Cause Show. This year’s recipient charity is Children’s Fund of San Bernardino County. The show is on Sunday, November 14th from 10:00am to 4:00pm. If you are in the neighborhood, please stop by:
I recently entered a recycled art contest on a whim. To my pleasant surprise, I won 1st place! The recycled object was a beautiful blue glass bottle containing an energy drink. I made disks and small spacers and put together a necklace/earring set. Breaking the glass down to manageable pieces was a challenge, but the overall process was a lot of fun. I named the set “Something Blue” – I am very honored.
