Bead Soup Partner Introduction

I signed up for the 7th Bead Soup Blog Hop, hosted by Lori Anderson of Pretty Things. She picked Karen Williams as my partner. Karen and I exchanged our ideas of wants and dislikes, and mailed our soups out. It turns out that Karen and I share a lot in common. Our love of beads, photography and nature. Here are a couple of her pieces, I stole borrowed from her blog.

I have always want to try a freeform peyote piece, looks like that is Karens specialty. Might just be the nudge I need to give it a try. Beautiful Karen!

The Soup Karen sent me.

 Look how beautifully she packaged my soup. I was so excited to rip open all the little boxes to see what was inside.

 Beautiful enameled butterfly button, lots of pretty seeds and all kinds of pretty glass beads.

Lampwork beads, silver button turquoise, silver sliders, amethyst beads, pearls, you name it, its there!

Thank you Karen for all the beautiful soup ingredients. I am so excited to get started, I have all kinds of ideas swimming in my head.
