Vintage Beads from Europe and Giveaways

BEAD SOUP REVEAL <-------click there

If you'll remember last week's BTW, I showed this pretty picture

These were provided to me by Vente of Vintage Beads from Europe. She sent me four half package (50 pieces) bead mixes in the following colors
Yellow Bead Mix
Teal Bead Mix
Pink Bead Mix
Purple Bead Mix

I received the bead mixes amidst all the bead soup brouhaha and wasn't able to craft anything with them until last week. I played around with the beads for a while and ended up making these three pieces.

If you'll notice, I didn't use any of the beads from the teal or purple mixes. That's because those beads are for YOU!! I saved my favorite two colors to share with you and challenged myself with the yellow and pink mixes. Anyway. . .

Yes, I'm having another giveaway!!
Leave me a comment letting me know what your favorite product is from Vintage Beads from Europe, whether it's one of the bead mixes, a button set, some of the metal findings, or any of the other cool items Vente has for sale. Just leave a comment with the item and you're entered to win both the purple and the teal bead mix. Easy peasy!! You have until Sunday, October 16th to enter. I'll draw a name on the 17th.


Speaking of giveaways, I stumbled on a few more today!

I've got a list of some less-than-exciting tasks I need to get done today before I can start some new projects on my bead table. Oh, and I heard from Joyce and will be sending out her prize package soon. So there will not be another drawing for the copper bead soup set. I just wanted to clear that up!  This copper beauty, however, is back in the shop for sale!

Have a great day!!

  3. Karyn,
    Thanks! I know. She;s definitely got some nice items there. That pink and yellow bracelet is my Pink Lemonade bracelet. If you look at it, there are even some pink lemons from the mix in it. That's what inspired me with that bracelet!
