That's me!

Hey All,

Just wanted to let everyone know that the voting for the Etsy Bead weavers Challenge “Tropical Holiday” is open now through February 15th. Visit http://etsy-beadweavers.blogspot.com/ to vote for your favorite bead woven work of art!

There are so many wonderful entries, it will be hard to choose just one. To view the entries in more detail go to Bead weavers blog front page and click the links under the mosaic. It will take you to each members Etsy shop to see different angles of the beadwork. I saw this morning that 454 votes have already been cast. How exciting!

It shows when a group of people love what they do. I think that is reflected in the Bead weavers group. We are all easily drawn into the creative flow the beads create around us. They allow us to weave them into art pieces from the most intricate and delicate webs to the most bold and dynamic sculptures. Everyone sees the beads differently and does different things with them.

Those differences shine through in this challenge. I had so many ideas for entering the challenge. I have an entire honeymoon’s worth of gorgeous photos taken by my loving husband to draw inspiration from when my memory wanes. And the thing that came through for me was wearing a fringed top and spinning on the beach. I have also been thinking of making a crocheted bead fringed top like the one Spinny Girl on the Beach is wearing for me!

Well, I hear my beads calling. Thank you all for your support of the Etsy Bead weavers Challenge. And good luck to everyone with the voting.
