It is here in all its bright, hot glory... summer! I love summer for cool evening breezes and warm days. I do not like at all the heat of our new to this area, heat domes. The good thing about them is I can park myself in front of a fan and do some serious beadwork. I like to string multiple strand necklaces and bracelets as a way to unwind and think and feel the calmness of bead meditation. Stay cool, stay hydrated and stay creative. My summer plan!
What my little bundle of work looks like at the end of a studio day. A day " off " from the shop. 
These are 24KT gold foil encased by hand in Czech glass bead hearts. I made them into pendants and have them on satin gold chains in the shop. $ 14.95. I used to make them a couple of decades back but thought this is the summer to bring them back. Gold, glassy and sparkly!
Earrings made with what I call summer Caribbean colors. Hot, tropical, swingy. These are my moon & sun earring tops and are on my website. Sterling Silver. You can make your own with my earring tops, your beads and some sterling head pins. Every summer needs a special pair of earrings!
This is it for me tonight. It has been a long day of studio work and watching a very big, chubby garter snake in my herb bed. I am going to post his or her picture on my FB page tonight. I saw her last summer and this is my first visit with her this summer. Snakes do not bother me but don't even talk to me about a spider!
Stay cool! Have fun! Get creative and crafty!! xo Lois
