Bead Soup Blog Party - The Reveal

Today is the day for Lori's 5th Bead Soup Blog Party, and I couldn't be more excited! I was paired up with Carol Dillman of Dillman's Dailies Blog. She sent me this wonderful bead soup below, and I was determined to use everything, and to use only items from my own stash rather than buying anything new. Unfortunately, I didn't end up using the amazing wire coils as my design just didn't work out. But I'm going to keep trying and hope to have something to show you next week.



Bead Soup I received from Carol Dillman: Her lovely handmade lampwork beads, a bag of accent beads, silver headpins, clasp, chain and beads, and three wire coils.



'Portside' - made with Carol's own lampwork beads, sterling beads, sterling clasp, and accent beads. I added a few of my own sterling spacer beads.



'Let's Go Fly A Kite' - made with Carol's own lampwork beads. The kite focal is from Jade Scott and Vintaj componets.



'Washed Ashore' made with Carol's starfish charm, a bit of chain, and one of her sweet lampwork beads. Also included are a glass disc bead from Twinstar, tumbled beach glass, a couple odd stones, and a plated silver ring.




'Tiny Bubbles' made with Carol's sterling beads (don't they just look like bubbles?). Red lampwork beads are from AlyDan.



'Morning Glory'-made with Carol's accent beads, earwires and headpins, plus my own silver-filled wire. The fifth time is the charm on this pair of earrings. The photo shown is the fourth try, and I noticed they were not quite right in regard to how the top blue beads are situated. It was very difficult to make the wires match, and the curves the same size etc, but I managed to get it to work.

    Oh Wow!

    Oh Wow!
    Ohhhhhhhh Wow!

    You are so talented. I can't figure out what I like best. Washed Ashore? Morning Glory? Tiny bubbles? I can't make up my mind. They are all so beautiful.
    (BTW, I feel your pain on the Morning Glory earrings. I have a necklace in progress that took me 10 tried to get right.

    I love all your pieces. The first one says - SPRING is in the air. The Go fly a kite is lovely- the asymmetric design on it. And the wire earring- beautiful. I think you did a great job matching the two sides. Even though when some one wears them it really does not matter that much I think...but you wanted to make them perfect and it came out beautifully.

    Alice, all of your pieces are just lovely. I really like those swirly earrings. Everything has such a beach flavor to it. Mine did too. Great job!

    I love the colors in your bead soup, some of my favorite colors-and such lovely pieces you created.

    I love the kite piece and the morning glory earrings. All your pieces have a cool summer feel to them. They'd all look lovely against sun-kissed skin.

    I can't believe it's taking me so long to get through this soup list! I apologize for just now getting here. It was definitely worth the wait though. The soup you received was really yummy, but everything you made is absolutely scrumptious!! I especially like both pairs of earrings. But, everything you made is just so fun and beautiful at the same time. Wonderfully, wonderfully done!!

    I really like your style- airy with lots of movement.
    I liked the 'Fly a Kite' necklace, but I fell in love with the vine earrings.
    Such a sweet collection of saturated colors, and you did such a fabulous job of adding your own unique style to the glasswork.
    Good job!!
