Welcome to the 3rd Bead Soup Blog Party – we’re rockin’ the house!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I am so excited THE day is here!\u00a0 \u00a0Thank you for partying with\u00a0me, whether this is your 8th or 125th stop along the Bead Soup tour.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

I want to give a great big shout out to my\u00a0dear friend and\u00a0Bead Soup\u00a0Blog Party creator\u00a0, Lori Anderson<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 Lori has been our fabulous\u00a0hostess and has put in a tremendous<\/em> amount of time behind the scenes organizing this party of\u00a0 210 <\/strong>participants.\u00a0\u00a0 Lori has shared so much of herself through inspirational stories and blog tips along the way.\u00a0 {She’s like the big sister you always wish you had}.\u00a0 Lori, here’s to you<\/span> (insert the sound of clinking glasses here)!<\/span><\/p>\n

Just in case the Bead Soup party is new to you, here’s the quick low-down.\u00a0 The participants were randomly paired with a partner and exchanged bead components consisting of a focal piece, clasp, and coordinating beads.\u00a0 Our only “rule” was that the clasp and focal needed to be used in our finished piece.\u00a0 I participated in the inaugural party; you can see my post about it here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Imagine my delight when I found out I was paired with Amanda Davie<\/a>, an artist whose work I had long admired on Etsy.\u00a0 That was only the beginning, just wait til you see the Bead Soup that Amanda sent to me!\u00a0 Oh my, Amanda spoiled me.\u00a0 I received a treasure trove of gorgeous lampwork, stones, pearls – all sorts of gorgeous beads.\u00a0 The best part?\u00a0 The real jewels in my “soup” were all of the handmade<\/em> components.\u00a0 Amanda sent me a polymer clay bezel clasp, copper and bronze metal clay pieces, an enameled link, and several resin-filled bezels.\u00a0 Now let’s move on to the pictures!\u00a0 Without further ado, here’s my stunning Bead Soup –<\/span><\/p>\n

\"bead-soup-from-amanda-davie_e\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

It was a tough decision with so many great beads to chose from!\u00a0 From the start though, I knew I would make something long.\u00a0 That was my ticket to incorporating as many beads as I could.\u00a0 I had various lay-outs going:\u00a0 single strand, double strand, a combination of strands!\u00a0 My husband stepped in to the studio, took one look, and had advice for me as well.\u00a0 That’s when I knew I better rethink where I was heading.\u00a0 I’m awfully proud of my finished necklace, entitled “Light and Day”, taken from the snippet encased in the resin bezel I chose.\u00a0 I finished off the piece with Amanda’s own copper\/brass\/polymer clay clasp – sure makes the necklace pretty from all angles.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"clasp_detail_e\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n

Let’s see…for the chain portion of the necklace, I relied on my old faithful friend, wire.\u00a0 In “Light and Day”, I chose a beautiful and warm bronze wire (which\u00a0 I oxidized to a nice, aged patina). I created bead caps and metal disc links topped with buttons from bronze sheet metal.\u00a0 The stand-out element has got to be the beautiful polymer clay discs by Christine Damm of Stories They Tell<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"links-links-links_e\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I just love the eagle resin-filled bezel that Amanda created, right down to the great color.\u00a0 The perfect color.\u00a0 To add some size to the focal, I added a rectangle cut from bronze sheet.\u00a0 This also gave me the opportunity to add extra holes for dangles.\u00a0 I added Amanda’s copper and bronze metal clay leaf and branch.\u00a0\u00a0 I adorned the Lake Michigan beach stone with wire and seed beads.\u00a0\u00a0A touch of \u00a0leather was added here and there to further the rustic feel of the necklace.\u00a0\u00a0 My focal reminded me of a dream catcher.\u00a0 In the end, I\u00a0really enjoyed the challenge of working with a color scheme and a\u00a0motif\u00a0\u00a0that I do not ordinarily work with.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now before you head out and party on, I have a little thank you Give Away<\/span><\/strong>!\u00a0 I made an extra button and textured bronze disc to create a simple necklace just for one of YOU.\u00a0 To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment.\u00a0 The Give Away will be open until next Thursday (March 3rd), \u00a0then I’ll announce the winner!<\/div>\n
