A touch of Spring


I have had pansies on my mind for weeks now, finally I was able to find some to purchase. I just needed to see their smiling faces to know that spring is here, after all it is March and we are in Tennessee so it is safe to say spring has sprung! I know lots of you are still buried under snow and ice just know that I will be enjoying this nice sunny spring weather for you!


This past Friday I went to see my bead lady Mary at the Nashville Flea Market. 
Did I need beads? NO

Did I want beads? YES 

So beads are what I got! 
sweet tiny amethyst roundels, peridot briolettes, moon stone, Tibetan beads and some fancy CZ drops and some more stuff I do not need
.
When I saw the peridot I already knew what I wanted to make.



You can find these on JudithBDesigns.com

  2. Gasp! First you post pansies...my favorite flower of all. They were my favorite herald of longer days and warmer nights even before I became a Tri Delta and they were the sorority flower. But those earrings... egads! Those took my breath away! I love them! And peridot is my birthstone. It took me dozens of years before I felt that this stone was pretty. Now I seek them out. Lovely all around. Are you sure you weren't writing this post just to bring me joy today? ;-)

    Enjoy the day!
