Spring Promise |
For many of us ,the Memorial day weekend marked the beginning of Summer .
For teachers and students the last day of school is the start of Summer.
Technically Summer begins on June 20 ,the day of the summer solstice. Therefore it is still Spring !
The Lima Beads Readers Challenge kit is titled the "Spring kit" .
I fell in love with the gorgeous blues and greens of the beads .
I have been seriously coveting the Green Girl Rabbit toggle for sometime now. Do birds get any more charming than that little Earthenwood guy !
I was thrilled down to the tips of my toes when I was able to join the challenge !!!! I really did do a happy dance !!!
Lucky for my readers I don't know how to add video to my blog!!!
However,my bead muse is presently in Summer mode .
What Spring design inspiration could I come up with ?
hummm.....
What is Summer but Spring's promise fulfilled .
Spring is the promise of warm days , sunshine , flowers
birds and ...yes... bunnies !
All those seeds are just waiting for the Spring sunshine to make them sprout and bloom into Summer splendor.
they are like the beads in our bead stash , just waiting for our imagination to grow them into a design creation..................
Before I start rambling...you better hop on over to Andrew Thornton's Blog
and enjoy the participant's garden of bead creations!

ReplyDeleteHi M.E.,
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your necklace it is so beautiful! I like how you bundled up the Czech glass beads in the mesh and added your own flower and made the bird the focal. Also I like how you did not hide the cute Rabbit clasp in the back of the necklace.
