Tree, tree, tree

Lol! Spike has company and is too busy to go anywhere. We are babysitting
a friend's two dogs, for a few days, and it's been nothing but Play City
here. Even old, blind Romeo tries to get in on it. I have 4 very tired
pups.

I'm so glad you like your bead, Kathy, and I can't wait to see what you do
with the other one! I was anxious all day, after I sent it off. Lol.
That's the only bead, of mine, that I consider mine! Something about the
trees is just comforting to me. I think I treat it like a worry bead.

I just sent Manda down to get the mail, and there was a package from
our very own Beadbimbo. Sadly, it wasn't Spike. :-) (We love
Spike) But the package contained two of the lovely tree beads she
showed us last week - similar to the top pendant on this page:

There's such a Van Gogh quality about the beads that isn't captured
in pictures, very impressionistic. The colors are blended from a
distance, but distinct and surprising when close up. Jerri, if you
look at a copy of Monet's gardens at Giverney paintings, or his
haystacks at harvest time, I'd bet you'd find some incredible
inspiration. Looking at the trees also makes me think you'd do an
amazing job with pontillism as well.

One bead is mine, and the photos don't do it even a little justice.
The other will be Jerri's and my first collaboration: I'm going to
make a seed beaded accent necklace to the lampwork bead. I can't
wait - and I'm sure I'm going to go overboard.

It's so fun to go overboard.

How wonderful. This makes me so happy.

Yup, I absolutely agree. Even her sunflowers look Van Gogh-ish.

So much so that I'm ready to go and listen to Vincent.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that the two guest piggies are in the middle of
the livingroom floor. We are calling them "Spike TV" for obvious reasons.
