July Bead Porn

Take a break from the summer heat and enjoy some refreshing bead porn!
 
 
 
 
Hammered copper rings and...
 

 
 
...patinated Greek tube beads from Linden Avenue Designs
 

 
 
Sterling silver rustic seahorse charms from Cathy Dailey.
 

 
 
And the same design in a larger, gold bronze pendant version.
 

 
 
And a gold starfish, too.  Yep, I was obsessed!
 

 
 
Luscious Czech glass in a lavender/blue Picasso finish...
 

 
 
...and a paler aqua blue Picasso finish...
 
 
 
 
...and some blue/brown/beige flowers...
 

 
 
...and maroon/olive green daisies are all from Arte Bella Surplus
 

 
 
Golden Mykonos ceramic spikes and...
 

 
 
...copper charms from Linden Avenue Designs
 

 
 
Handpainted polymer clay leaves from Humblebeads - I bought a pair in the teal color...
 

 
 
Polymyer clay heart charms and...
 

 
 
...matching pendant from Menagerie Studio.  Sadly, I just read that she is closing her shop - guess it's a good thing I have been hoarding pieces from her for quite some time as they are going to be impossible to get from now on.  Bummer!
 

 
 
Bright lampwork headpins from Havana Beads.
 

 
 
Fun blue/green lampwork pair from Loupiac.

Hope you enjoyed this month's bead porn!

Hmmmm....those are all speaking summer to me! Flowy dresses and strappy sandals and walks on the beach! I love those Kathy Dailey pieces. Scrumptious! And I have every one of Heather's leaves, but these bright ones are new. So, so pretty. Thanks for sharing your hoard! Enjoy the day. Erin
