*MY* present
My parents were just down in DeBary, Florida visiting my brother and his
family. While they were there, they took a short drive to DeLand and stopped in at Kathryn's Beads and Baubles (116 E Rich Ave (386) 740-8880). The *intention* was to let Hayley, age 11, and Zoe, age 5, pick out some beads for Aunt Jo. Wellllllllllllll, I've often said that my brothers had my children. They stepped into the shop and went bonkers! They picked out beads that THEY wanted and now *I* have two projects to be done after the holidays. Hayley picked out six lampwork frogs and a vial of opaque black 11° seed beads. Zoe decided on three lampwork bunnies, three cane (or they could be lampwork?) beads, and a vial of neon fuschia 11° seed beads. Gee, I'm sooooo glad they thought of me. ;-) So anyone have any creative ideas on this? I can put together necklaces but I'm open to suggestions. |

I think a black brick stitch or peyote bracelet with the froggies leaping
around the wrist would be cute. :-) You could do a sculputural peyote Easter egg with the fuschia beads & the bunnies. -- Barbara www.penguintrax.com eBay: pnguintrax Justbeadsenguintrax 0 /O\ Need web hosting?

My first suggestion is that you keep some of that lampwork, rather that put
it into the hands of often clumbsy or careless children. My second suggestion is to ask if they got any beads for you or only a couple jobs for you (without pay).

I dont have suggestions for you as to what to do with the beads but they
sure sound like a fun assortment to work with! Now, if we could convince my assorted nieces and nephews to shop at a bead store for me, or a quilt store! I wouldnt even mind if they asked for a quilt! *they wouldnt get one till I was ready to make it tho! ) I hope you can post pictures of whatever you come up with. The mind boggles... neon fuchia....bunnies.. frogs.. lol... whoohoooo Diana -- Queen of FAQs Royal Peace Maker http://photos.yahoo.com/lunamom44 "JL Amerson" wrote in message ...
