Heather Powers and Lori Eurto have partnered up to be
the Hostesses of this
Intrigued by the colors, the beads, and I wondered...
"What would I come up with?"
Got my friend Katherine to play along.
She started a new blog just for this challenge.

We made the mad dash to Michael's to buy these beads.
(or a substitutes if our Michael's didn't have the ones listed.)
Everybody was to use the beads in the above picture,
Adding two additional "kinds" of beads
and our own and a focal.
Then we could create whatever
our heart desired.
This fabric was the inspiration for Heather
when she picked out her beads.
I found some window beads that were in the color palate
and ceramic green beads in different shapes.
The rest are from the list.
The necklace focal was gifted to me by my Mom's friend Kay.
Thanks Kay!
My two additional kinds of beads are
silver plated metal beads
and a pale blue pear shaped Czech beads.
Super simple earrings.
Still toying with the idea of adding the ribbon to them.
But I also like the idea of being able
to wear them without the set.
The "LOVE" link with crystals was purchased on a whim
from Aunties's beads.
Seemed a good time to use it.

I'm so happy that I used up most of the beads.
Just a few horn beads left, the white turquoise rondels
and some of the green ceramic beads.
I made myself a bonus bracelet for the set.
It's a hodge-podge of items. Love that little GG fish.
Great for that stacked look which I adore.
Thanks for stopping by and looking!
If you have sometime...
check out and see what the other
participants came up with using the same beads.

What did they chose for their additional beads?
Thanks so much Ladies for the inspiration!
