Volume 7 Issue 7 July 2010
What's New in July?
Stars and Stripes!
This multi strand necklace features the wonderful lampwork prowess of Jacqueline Maruri.
I fell in love with her exotic lampwork ability and the gorgeous creamy colours of her focal beads and bought close to 15 of them. I have them all prepared to be hand strung. I have matched seed beads and crystals and now I am only missing the time to finish them all off.
The 4th of July and Vote 2010 bracelets are also created from her lampwork beads.
I finally got a chance to sit down and create 12 new clay blends. These will find their way into flower canes and some kaleidoscope canes as soon as I finish beading some of my latest bracelets and watches.
I had some beads featured as a favorite pick in the BeadStyle Magazine and my beads disappeared from my shop. I created a couple dozen more and they almost all have sold. I am in the process of creating dozens more beads, so keep an eye out for them!
They are available on www.bluemorningexpressions.com now.
www.theseedbeadpatternstore.com has been updated and all the bracelet patterns are up. I have a couple of the tapestries up but have not finished all of those yet. I added a few more wolf patterns and I have added a free pattern section. I will be putting up free patterns on the site.
If you have purchased bracelet patterns from me in the past and did not receive the 10 colour and under updates, please let me know and I will get those to you. I have updated the patterns to make it easier on everyone.
Fans of clip on earrings for big girls will find www.cliponearringsboutique.com restocked with earrings just for them. I added 20 sets of dangles with Swarovski, glass pearls, Czech faceted rounds and lots of iridescent and sparkly things. Also added were one of a kind sets of millefiori glass hearts, diamonds and chicklet beads.
Thank you so much for all the input and emails. I enjoy all the encouragement that you send my way.
Until next month,
Julie
