Un-beading

Crikey. Today I am un-beading. I've been working on a piece all week long. It was going to be a fabulous piece. It had a beautiful ceramic focal bead. You saw the picture. Well, today I am un-beading because the instructions I was following seem to have left out a major detail. This is the caveat when using instructions from the magazines. In order to save space, they chop up the ten pages of instructions originally sent by the artist. So instead of ten detailed pages, you get two not so detailed pages. And in that editing (let's say culling instead), things get left out.

I'm also working up diagrams for a little private class on Sunday, which I don't look at as a class, but a get-together with my beady girlfriends. We learn, we laugh, we do a pot-luck lunch, and we bead. I love it. I kinda like them, too.

A asked me if it was FALL yet. I just chuckled. It's supposed to heat up again after this weekend. I am so ready for cooler weather, when what few trees we have that are capable of change do so. This one was also taken at Lost Maples. By the way, I could easily live out there.
