Drool Time!

Enough with my blabbering (happy version OR sad version)...bring on the bead porn!







Dyed orange jade drops from GemmeTresor on Etsy - yep, I'm still on the "bright colors" kick.









See? More brights. Faceted dyed pink candy jade.





And, some dyed pink jade drops, too.





A great pair of lampwork glass beads from Libelula on Etsy.








Beautiful boro glass green/blue pair from Atlantis Glass & Bead on Etsy.





Another lovely pair from Libelula. I'm always a sucker for anything in the blues/greens family.





FlameCrazy on Etsy has been working with enamels lately and I just love the results! This set is one of several that I purchased from her and the colors and effects of the enamels are so wonderful!




Textured fleur-de-lis charms from Cathy Dailey.








Triple heart charms from Sweet Rock Candy Beads on Etsy.






Leaf charms from Sweet Rock Candy.








Leaf toggle also from Sweet Rock Candy.




Perfect for Valentine's Day - some darling ceramic heart charms from Dot Winchell at Winchell Clay Works.




More from Winchell - I love the off-center holes so the hearts can hang at an angle.



Yeah, I spent a lot of time on Dot's Etsy site one day - but can you blame me? LOOK how cute these are!


Stoneware flourished heart with touches of aqua glaze from Lisa Peters Art on Etsy.

Happy weekend, everyone!

Thanks for the bead porn. I needed it today after the dreary raining chilly weather here in Florida. I dug out the umbrella and went to a local bead show and left less than excited.... This brightened my day significantly!

I am so bookmarking GemmeTresor for when my bead exile is complete. Color is on my list of to-do's for 2010. You are getting into color in a big way. Love it! And I am falling in love with Cathy Dailey all over again. Stop it. I can't take another moment of looking. Walking away now...
Enjoy the day!
