I just finished my 3rd tutorial with the new Twin Beads. All 3 of them started out to be bracelets, but morphed into a full on necklace. LOL Here are 2 versions, both of which are included on the tutorial. The reason for this is that the 1st one took exactly 23 grams of Twin Beads, with about 10 to spare. So I had to do up a 2nd one to write the tutorial and after culling I didn’t have enough to do the same bottom. ..which is not all bad

I look forward to doing up some more with these awesome beads!
I have my Bead Dreams piece in full swing and hopefully will be done soon! I am very happy with it and even have a model for it! I can’t even wait to share it with all of you!! I also have to work up soon the Etsy Bead Embroidery Guilds challenge piece, the theme is filigree. After that, I have the Fire Mountain contest piece to work up. It is a collaboration with an awesome friend of mine, Bev McCarthy from Bead Fiesta the Shoppe. She gave me a gorgeous hunk of lampwork about 4 years ago and it is a beautiful but challenging piece. I started it ages ago, but it just didn’t sit right with me, so I have a new idea for it. On top of all this, my Sister, Karla, is coming to visit in April and if I don’t empty out the spare room, she will be sleeping in the living room. Also in April, I have to take my work up into the mountains to Roy’s Last Shot in Blackhawk, Co. They have expanded greatly and have a beautiful gift shop. I have been asked to bring my work up there and trust me, in the summer, that place is standing room only! I have driven by many times where there is not one more place to park. So this year is flying by and I have lots to do! Oh and to top that off, I have a side project I am working on: http://beadstalkers.com More about that later

You have really taken those little treasures on and created awesomeness! Great work!
Beautiful pieces! I’m especially partial to the black and red.
Whew! Sounds like you’ll be really busy. Best of luck with all of your contest entries — that’s exciting! I have a few I’m working on, too, and I have a feeling that I won’t get much sleep in the next few months.
