My Shabby chic Lampwork Beads (also with other Artisans) and its Table Wednesday!



Whats on my bead table?


Ive been working on more Lampwork that has a Shabby chic feeling! I have to say I really am liking them. I've been Inspired by Gaea who makes some lovely shabby chic beads. I have gotten some nice things in the mail too below..


Its raining! Hard rain. Thank the Lord is all I can say! What makes the weather go anyway? Maybe the Angels are in charge of those things I wonder? What a blessing we haven't had rain in forever! Here's my newest Lampwork and some other lovies..
I've named this
She's a One eyed 
Purple people Eater.
Having fun naming beads here today!






Ive named this set One fish two fish..
amply said?
Well I had to name it Something! lol








Here is a sweet Shabby bead from Gaeas Shop.
This bead was the Inspiration to this Lampwork above..



This Private Journal is handmade ceramic from Mary Harding. I cant wait to use this bead! I love this bead. When we were kids it was always so cool to have Secret things..remember that? 
All those neat things we hoarded. As adults we've all got that kind of stuff today..






These Beauty's  below are from Birgitta Lejonklou. She is also one fine talented woman as well as such a sweet person! 


I have international rates and called her the other day and I 
probably gave her a bit of a shock lol. We had the nicest talk. I am happy to call her my friend. When we go home to Scotland Id love to meet her as Sweden's not too far away. Wouldn't that be nice..I would love to go in the beginning of winter..Scotland is beautiful at that time. I imagine Sweden would be too!








 These are two Lovely beads from TesoriTrovatis Shop. 
I just love and hoard her beads. I don't want to make anything to sell with them..for shame.
(Erin said this is a pig. But I think it looks like a cow! So its a cow! lol)





Well the day is gone. Lampwork will have to wait till tomorrow. I hope you all have a great evening!


Today I am believing in Psalm 3:5

I did a little happy dance in the post office when my package arrived! They KNOW I am crazy over there! But the beads are exquisite and sweetly packaged! Great names! I can't wait to play with them! I know a few beads over here that are dying to sit next to your beads shouting "Me first! Me first!"

 

You are really on a creative roll Janet, your beads are awesome! I do love bumpy beads myself!!

 

Thank you for all of your comments!

Therese I try to have fun naming them! Its funny how some of the beads stand out and feel so special to me. But they are work over a hot torch so they are well loved!

You are so never going to believe this but both of these sets went straight to my heart!
Purple People eater was my mom's favorite fun song and she even had a stuffed one that played the song (both Shelby and now Derek have loved it!) And One Fish Two Fish is the story I have read to both of by babes when they were just starting to want to be read to and we also have a Blue Fish stuffy. Thank you so much for touching my heart like this!

 

Kristen Bless your sweet heart! Your comment made my day!! Aww your comment was touching too! Thank you ox
