My Bead Hoarders Creation.....

This year I decided to participate in Lori Anderson's, 2nd Annual Bead Hoarders Blog hop. Unfortunately my husbands grandmother passed away on Thursday and we headed out of town for the funeral. 

I had several piles of beads that I have hoarded and had intentions of making several pieces from them but alas that didn't happen. I decided to show you the one sole piece that I was able to make and of course I wanted to show you my favorite hoard pile.

I adore Labradorite! So this is my hoarded pile of it!

      

 To me there is just something special about it. I love the neutrality of the gray shade, but I'm sure the flash is what does it for me. It's seems like such a simple stone but then a certain light hits it and bam! it's like a light show. I like to think that it holds it beauty for just the right time and them surprises you with it. I look for it every where I go all the time when I shop i am just simply drawn to it.

So here is the only piece I was able to make.....

I decided to make a piece for myself a multi strand  bracelet. Now that I am back home there will be a pair of earrings made to match.

I wish that I was able to have made more from my other piles of hoarded goodies but I will just hoard them until next years Hoarders Blog hop!

Here's a list of all the participants  and as always a big shout out to Lori Anderson for making it all happen! Now I am off to hop!
