I am for the birds...

I have told you numerous times that I am busy this week. I know you are probably saying soooo..... I have work piled up. My art room is a total mess, let alone the rest of the house. I have company coming. yada, yada, yada... So what am I doing you say? Making bird nests. Little itty bitty baby bird nests.

I went to my favorite second hand store today, Value Village. (I get jewelry pieces & beads to take apart & re-bead) Well, today I found this gorgeous necklace that had blue robins egg fresh water pearls in between the most stunning handblown glass beads. I had visions of taking it apart to make a freeform cuff. The colors are robin egg blue with a soft teals, greens and purple accent beads. (I should have taken a picture of it, rats!)
Now this had to be fate! When I got home I thought I would, real quick, check out Dawns' blog (The Feathered Nest, as if you don't already know who she is.) At that time she was posting about Just Something I Made's tutorial post on making birds nests. I made the big mistake and went to the post without even thinking that it would effect the rest of my evening. A huge light bulb off in my head! I have the eggs! (I have added a few "flowers" & leaves to mine out of chips of rock. I am having toooo much fun!

Bye, for now I have get back to the eggs before they hatch out...Be sure to check out Just Something I Made's tutorial! But be sure you have alot of time to get hooked on these treasures...

Thanks for coming my way. We all know how much your comments keep us creating?

P.S. Several of you have said I need to get back to showing you some of the jewelry pieces I have been working on. That is exactly why I am going on my extended vacation, away from all of the minor/major things that distract me away from beading, (like birds nests). I will come back with alot of goodies finished and ready to show you. Thank you for your encouragements.
