My partner * sent me fine bead soupery
With bead clasps made with super loopery.
The beads were so pretty
'Twould be a great pity
To hide them with too much beaucoup-pery.
I wrapped and I strung and I fiddled
Made sure that the focal was middled.
What I found quite tricky,
(It's where it got sticky:)
For sari silk, holes are soooo littled.
So here are my bead soup creations,
Divine in their fine colorations.
My partner and Lori
In all of their glory
Deserve thanks and appreciation.

Now go forth and do some blog hoppery
To see treasures silver and coppery
To see treasures silver and coppery
With baubles and beadies
And even bead seedies
There's so much to see, it's non-stoppery.

Your creations are very cute (and good idea to keep it simple and let the beads do the talking). I like the way all the colours go together - you have an eye for colour!

I find fibers so hard to work with - but I LOVE how you strung a single bead on the silk sari - so beautiful!

ReplyDeleteloved the rhyming! and you created some really nice pieces here, btw I really like those little earrings with the brown ceramic beads and the little bears (are they?) they might be simple, but I really love them
ReplyDeleteVery cool post and your pieces are totally awesome.
ReplyDeleteYour fun poem lifted me up! I was tired of hopping and "captcha" was getting on my nerves big time. I got a good chuckle. Clever post and such pretty creations.!
ReplyDeleteHa! Your poem was definitely inspired, much like your designs. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI just love your writing creativeness or is it creativity! Not to mention your wonderful creations! I really like the sari silk necklace with that focal! So pretty:)
ReplyDeleteThe wire work necklace is my favorite - the beads and copper wire combo looks beautiful. I like the earrings, especially the first pair! And I always admite the use of other materials - the ribbon with the focal looks great! Compliments on the little beady poem :)
ReplyDeleteHi Eleanor, The stories that you write are very imaginative and they add greatly to your jewelry. My favorite is the lighter colored bead from Elizabeth that you wire wrapped the squares with. I also really like the earrings with the bear fetish and blue beads. Great job using your soup.
