Welcome to another FF :)
To the new followers and readers, the first Friday of every month is Freebie Friday - which means you'll discover a giveaway of some sort that will run until the last Wednesday of the month.
Last FF I put together a bead mix, the one before that I did some handmade chain. For August, I was originally thinking of doing either some jewelry or some handmade components, but the month got away from me >.< too much work, too little time *sigh* Shame on me for all that procrastinating I tend to do >.< The other day when I realized it was time to post the new FF and I didn't have anything set aside for it, I'd thought of ransacking my new goodies and maybe offering up a pendant and a few coordinating beads... then inspiration struck.
While hanging out in the Bead Soup Cafe, someone posted the Pantone Fall color chart.
Hmm.... I wonder if I have enough of those colors to put together into a Pantone Fall soup?
hmm... yup :) Looks like.
So there you go... The winner for August will get a nice yummy Fall Pantone Soup :) The beads are a mix of everything... seriously. That big yellow leaf is made of deer antler, the orange nuggets are dyed magnesite, the little brown ones are wood... the rest are shell, porcelain, clay, Czech glass, glass, and acrylic.
For those who are unable to use the Blogger 'Follow' feature, Subscribers & Email followers count as well. Just put which way you follow in your entry :)
I gotta run , get some more work done on my challenge piece for tomorrows reveal and hop, then while that's drying, go buy some coffee while it's on sale, then come back and finished & photograph my pieces :) Totally last minute run-a-round, as always :)

What a gorgeous group of beads
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collection. Now I bet that coffee you are buying is so you stay up most of the night finishing everything else ;o)
ReplyDeleteactually...I don't think I did stay up...lol I can't force it.. if my head and eyes get tired, then not even coffee will help. It may help me stay awake, the creative part has logged out for the night ;) lol
