etsyBEAD Theme of the Week - Bunches of Color

For the week of September 16-22, the etsyBEAD Street Team has selected the weekly theme "Bunches of Color". Many of the team members offer special pricing on items that fit the theme.

I have selected a pair of earrings, a necklace and a necklace/earring set for this week's theme.

The pink and brown cluster set is one of my favorites. I used plenty of rose quartz, freshwater pearls and smoky quartz for this elegant necklace and earring set.















These golden bunches earrings are just plain fun! The focal bead is a faceted freshwater pearl and the drops are pearls and crystals.

The End of the Fair...


Labor Day was the last day of the Fair and I'm exhausted! This was the most fabulous Fair in our 10 years of participating. The crowds were awesome and business was good. As usual, we ate too much and didn't sleep enough.

Here's a picture of a small part of the Flower Exhibits. Some of the entries were amazing. Unfortunately, I didn't get a photo of the baby pigs (too cute!) or the giant cabbages (a little scary).

Now, we have to get ready for our annual trip to Fairbanks for the Bad Girls of the North craft show there. And I must get busy with my etsy store, which I have ignored for a few weeks now. Back to work for me!
