AD - Forced Blooms...(and more seashells!)

Hi Y'all,

I've listed 2 new auctions tonight.
I had a real stinker of a day at the torch this past week. I sat for hours
one day and only made 7 beads! I was trying to force myself to do something
other than seashells. I spent the rest of the day pulling some nice striped
stringers and the next day I made the most adorable set of squeezed beads
with appliquéd flowers! I think they really came out nice!....
Then I made SEASHELLS!.... Wheeee!
Now I'm on a self inflicted incentive program. I can't make seashells until
I make a "normal" set of beads! Hey, I have to preserve my evolution
somehow, or else I'll become the "Crazy Seashell Lady".... =o))
Why don't cha click on over and take a peek.... http://snipurl.com/my_ebay

Thanks for looking!

Me too, they're like hand-embroidered William Morris motifs.

Very neat.

Forced Blooms are lovely, and I like how you've re-inforced the theme
in how you worked the wire

Thanks Su!
Actually, I used to embroider little flowers that looked very much like this
on my jeans when I was a hippie chic teen! Ahhhh, those were the days! Hip
huggers and go-go boots and bell bottoms!
Oooops! Showing my age... =o)

The little leaf is fun to do...the first one anyway, but when I get to the
other end, I have to work in reverse which can be a little awkward.
Sometimes I do little tiny one's for head pins on Focal Beads.
