Check It Out

~~~~CHECK IT OUT~~~~

Here are some new updates and interests of mine. Why share?? I figure if I find them interesting, there must be someone else that will. So here's my latest "check it out" blog entry:

Here are a few new blogs I have recently discovered:

http://countingyourblessings.blogspot.com/

It's described as "Romantic Farmstyle" LOVE IT !! Check out all her vintage items and postings.

Another blog I have fallen in love with is:

"Just following Jesus in my Real life"

http://www.justfollowingjesus.com/

Elizabeth's blog is a mix of beautiful photography, insights, inspirational tidbits and home design.

It also has one of my favorite names and sounds like my blog name a bit.

BE SURE and CHECK THEM OUT!!

Last "Check it out" is more of a personal thing. After making close to 20 bracelets and around 10 earring sets, I have officially taken my first beading class. I wanted to take pictures in class, but since I did not know anyone (other than my sister) I held back. perhaps next time!?!?

It was very intimidating at first as I have never done such detailed work. We worked with seed beads and thread through a needle. Very delicate design and work. Here is a picture of the seed beads needed for the project.

My teacher stated that I chose some of the most difficult colors to work with but it will be beautiful. Leave it to me to start off the hard way, but I know what I like and well.......

Here are two close up pics of my unfinished bangle bracelet. Even incomplete it's pretty!!

I think the colors are kind of regal looking, but I am a bit partial I suppose. I mentioned this in class and added it reminded me of Princess Diana's Jewelry. Remember her famous wedding ring.. OK it's not that good... but I like it.

So until the next "CHECK IT OUT",

DEBBIE <><
