Mica Shift Beaded Pendant

I finished another beaded cabochon pendant. Looks kinda like a tadpole with that single "tail" hanging down. I'm making a beaded rope to hang it on.... that will take awhile, I'm not a very fast beader and I have clay things I want to work on.

Beaded Cabochons

I finished a couple of the beaded cabochons I've been working on. I'm still pretty slow, it took a couple evenings to bead the pretty lady cab. I'm please with the way she turned out, I like the fringe loops with Swarovski crystal beads.

After seeing the photo I think the oval one needs a more finished look so I will add a pointed edge. They both need beaded bails but I had to stop and give my eyes a rest.

Polymer Clay & Rubber Cord Necklaces

I am making progress. Slowly but surely I'm gettin er done. I finished a couple more necklaces. I strung these on rubber cord. The beaded cabochon is on blue cord and the mirror image is on black cord.

Beaded Cabochon Necklace

I had a good time going through the boxes of unfinished items... it was like Christmas. Some things I had forgotten and was pleasantly surprised to see again.... others I swear I have never seen before. Must have been that darn ghost in our attic. (Yes, we do have a ghost, I'll tell you about her sometime)

Truth is when you get old you forget things... no big deal. Some people find this disturbing, not me, I kinda like it. It saves me money on books and movie rentals. It can be annoying at times... like when I put something away in a "safe place" never to be seen again. I did find a 50 dollar bill in a book the other day, that was fun.

Back to the unfinished pieces. I've made a deal with myself... I must complete one item a day, more if I'm so inclined but I must complete at least one, before I can work on something new. So here is my item for yesterday. I used matching goldstone beads with seed bead spacer to complete the necklace. I'm proud of myself. I would pat myself on the back but I can't reach it anymore... arthritis .... so I'll pat myself on the knee.
