I spent the morning clearing up my workspace. I should have taken a "before" picture rather than just an "after" picture. The table was full of little baggies and the bowls over against the wall held my finished pieces. I got that lovely set of blue drawers from my boyfriend for Christmas and today, I filled it up with my jewelry and went label crazy. Then I took the baggies of beads and dumped them into the bowls.
Oh, I have a few plastic storage things but who am I kidding? These beads usually just stay in baggies and wind up strewn across the table, thrown in my backpack... or even in my purse! So I just put them in these bowls until I can actually get around to sorting them out.
After getting the table all clear, I pulled out my sketchbook and set to work. I still have oodles of doodles that are begging to be made into wire lovelies.
A few bends and some happy hammering and I've got a lovely frame to wrap with seed beads.
I lose myself in the wire wrapping. It's great fun. Usually, I have an audiobook playing and I just listen and wrap.
The finished earrings. Originally, I was going to have a pearl as the dangle but I thought the teal Czech round was more dynamic.
I'll have these up in the shop tomorrow afternoon.
What's on YOUR bead table today?
