Bead of the Day 2-2-12

I have been bummed out by the grey sky in my neck of the PNW this last week, so I wanted to find a bright and colorful bead of the day today and I found this bright green with black polka bead by Amy of Amy Sims Designs. This is a wonderful addition to any charm bracelet, and brings a fun splash of color. See the other coordinating beads Amy has in her Etsy shop below (I coudln't help myself and included the photos here). Amy also offers Free Shipping on Bead of the Day, so please send her a message to get the coupon code.

Lampwork Bead of the Day: February 1

New month and the days are getting longer. Today we actually had daylight for more than 8 hours!

February is the month for winter sports (at least in my country). And when you've been out all day in the snow, you wan't - hot cocoa!

Doesn't this set of beads remind you of hot cocoa with wipped cream?

Brown Topaz Wrapped Ivory Spacers

I think they look totally yummy. Barb from River's Edge Glass made them and you can find them in her ArtFire shop.

Glass Bead of the Day 1/31

Can you believe it??? January is DONE! Valentine's, Mardi Gras and St. Pat's and Spring break will all be here in the blink of an eye!

I love heart glass beads because they are so easy to make into a beautiful pendant for Valentine's or what's wrong with wearing a little love all year long????

This heart by Susan Lambert is so sweet and pretty. It would make any girl feel loved!

Glass Bead of the Day: Monday, January 30th

Happy Monday!  Today's glass beads for us to admire are these Green, White and Tan beads by Rosemarie of Spawn of Flame:

Art Glass Handmade Green, White and Tan Beads by Spawn of Flame

All the lovely variety within these beads reminds me of a gorgeous painting, though the name escapes me at the moment.  Rose has done a great job with this colorful set, and it even gives the appearance of turquoise in the rough.  See what other goodies her flame is spawning by visiting her ArtFire shop and her Etsy shop.  Remember, Rose also offers 15% off this set while it's Bead of the Day!

See what else the Fire Divas are up to by visiting the weekly ArtFire thread here.  Have a great Monday!
