Thank You!

I've created several account for my various interests, some fleeting, some forgotten, some personal, some business.  I've decided to consolidate and hopefully keep things organized.  I'm still keeping a blog but you can now find me here on Handmade Cuties.

Thanks for your support :)

A Black Cat Charm for Halloween

I've been anxious to start on the patterns from Barbara Elbe's Beaded Image II book and I'm pleased to say that I just completed my first project using one of her designs.  The pattern is the Persian Cat that I modified by using black and gray seed beads to celebrate Halloween.  Here is my Black Cat charm.

Beadwoven Owl Cell Phone Charm

I got side-tracked.  Instead of completing the other side of my fan earring, I worked on a owl charm.  I do that quite often...getting distracted and wanting to start a new design.

Here's my owl:
