It's Almost Over

Today is the 3rd and Final Bead Soup Blog Party (BSBP) Reveal.  It's so exciting and kinda sad to think it's almost over.  Lori Anderson sent out a sweet little post card thanking me for joining in the fun and inviting me to her next hop (I think it is in Feb). 

I can't imagine not doing it at this point since I have learned so much and met so many fabulous jewelry designers, bead makers and genuinly awesome people.

Once all the excitement dies down and I get my supplies a little more organized I will be doing a GIVEAWAY!!  Some of it will be a Pay It Forward from a great stash I was given and the rest will be from the best bead deal I think I will EVER get. 

I happened to be in the right place at the right time on Etsy when someone was about to move and needed to destash.  I was lucky enough to grab up about 30 orphaned lampwork beads for a ridiculously low price and I want to share some with you!  Check back soon, maybe I can get it together for Labor Day weekend?

For now, please check out these great artists and what they came up with from their bead soup:
