Bead Soup on the stove

I got my partner for this years BEAD SOUP BLOG PARTY.
 I've been partnered with Heather d'Entremont from Nova Scotia . She's a polymer clay artist, dog rescuer, and has a large doggie family. I wonder if she knows that dog hair and polymer clay don't mix. LOL
Can't wait to get to know her better and to see some of her work.
If you'd like to meet her pop on over to her blog at    http://frugalmacdougall.wordpress.com

I can't wait to see what soup mixes we exchange.
I'm still working on mine. need to get cracking'.

Today is the Bead Peeps Swap and Hop day! whoo -hoo!!!! Today  is the day that we get to show off what we made with the beads sent to us by our partner.  My beads came from Inge von Roos in California USA.   Several months back we signed up to participate, were assigned partners, and sent off our selection of beady goodies to our partner. Once they were received we then ooh-ed and ah-ed , stewed and cogitated, planned and designed, rearranged and then finally started the assembly process .  Some of us got it right on the first go, others had to redesign, reassemble , rework, a few times or many, the planned idea till we were happy with the result.  At last we get to share what we made with our beautiful treasures. as a refresher , here are he beads I received from my partner Inge von Roos from California, USA.
