My inspiration from flowers in my garden.

I love color. Early morning is the best time to get a good photograph in my flower garden.

Remembering your loved ones in a special way.

Look how I make a glass memorial ash bead.....

Memorial keepsake ash jewelry.

Making cremation ash beads. 

A very unique way to remember loved ones. 

Keep them close to your heart.

Bead Soup Blog Hop, Bead Hoarders Edition..Revealed !!

My partner this year is CJ Bausch Artist, Designer. She is an amazing artist who makes incredible jewelry. You will see what she made with my beads on her blog here....http://fool4jewels.blogspot.com.

She sent me a boxful of goodies to work with.

This first piece is a multi strand necklace full of beads sent to me by my partner. 

I've grown a deep appreciation of artists who work with seeds beads.

They are hard to work with !

I made these earrings to match.

Then I put this necklace together. Working with these sparkling crystals was a delight.

And finally I made this for all the butterfly people out there to enjoy.

Thank you Lori Anderson for putting this event together and for everyone who participated.
