Bead Table Wednesday

It's shocking I know, but I'm going to share some of my Copper Work in Progress, I've always got copper going at some stage so it only makes sense to share it. But don't miss my newest stone beads at the end.

 As usual re-stocking the shop, some special and pre-orders and a few new. This time I have some larger Sea Urchins in somewhat of a free form shape and a Large Ammonite piece that I envision as a bracelet but it could easily be a pendant with a place to put a fun dangle. I have lots and lots of cleaning and filing to do to it all but I'm shooting for a possible Thursday night firing.

I love taking pictures of beads, so much fun!

From the center there is Natural Golden Coral Rounds, then Barrel shape Mexican Turquoise, a strand of yummy Red Bamboo Coral, Howlite Heishi and last but not least beautiful Green Yellow Howlite.

 These beads were purchased from ExcellentGem, very happy with what I received and they were nice and cooperative sellers. I added the Green Yellow Howlite in at the last moment before shipping.

I have been contemplating for some time, opening another shop. Since I was stuck on the couch for a few weeks after foot surgery, I could not do my PMC work so I set up a little beading studio right on the couch. I have really been enjoying playing with stones and beads and I want to continue doing that. But I decided I need to keep my Etsy Shop more focused on PMC and separate my beading work to another shop.

So after much debating back and forth in my head I have decided to open a shop on Big Cartel, I have a number of new pieces I haven't listed on Etsy yet so there will be some new stuff and I'll slowly move the currently listed Beady items over to the new shop.

So some time over the weekend I'll do the BIG REVEAL!!!! Watch this space!

Here are a couple of the new pieces, thanks for looking!
