Be Afraid....BTW

I don't often do Bead Table Wednesdays because I'm not an organized person. But thought I would bare myself to your judgements today by showing you EXACTLY what my bead table usually looks like on Wednesdays and any other day of the week.








Here it is. I didn't move a thing, try to tidy up or even spray air freshener. It is pure chaos, but that's what gets my creative juices flowing. Notice my little feline muse (Arachne) sleeping in the corner of Grandma's table.

These are some pieces I'm working on just now. The Butterfly will be a necklace, The watch with wings will be a brooch, and the Queen Bee surrounded by flowers is the centerpiece for a "Celebration of the Bees" necklace that I'm making for my friend Jana who is a beekeeper and friend to the little sisters in our gardens.

This purple piece is a work in progress. Not sure yet if it will be a pendant brooch, or a necklace. The fairy will be the centerpiece for a very dainty necklace. The armadillo is just there to keep me company.

Oops! Looks like the flash and click of the camera awoke our little Princess. She is NOT amused.

  1. I have a feline muse too, and she could be twin to yours :-)

  2. what a glorious jumble, my bench used to look like that when I had my workshop and could leave it all out.
    I love that angel, looking forward to seeing that finished.

  3. I love Arachne's little bed. At least your table is big enough for a feline muse. Only my smallest, Stormie, is allowed on my desk while I work. The other two -- the 13-pounder and the 15-pounder -- would leave me no room to work!

  7. I left a comment here before but it looks like it was swallowed by the Blogger down-time. I think i said that Arachne made a wonderful Muse, and that I love the butterfly that is also a faerie!
