Focus On Life - Week 24 - Green

Yes, my wall is green!

Need Some Advice, Please

I have a lot of small seed beads.  I used to work for a bead store, and I had a discount...Anyway, 'nuff said, except that I have a lot of seed beads! 

Since my eyes are not as young as they used to be, I have a hard time seeing the small beads.  I can't work with them anymore.
 So, I would like to sell them.

I have one batch listed in my Etsy store.  It's the Greens you see in the photo.  You can click HERE to see it.  

Now, my question is this.  Would it be better to list sets of these seed beads for destash or to make up mixes out of the other beads I have?  What do you think? I'd appreciate your opinions on this.  Thanks.

I Heart Macro!

So,

yesterday Jenny and I went to the dog park again with Pixie!

I HEART MACRO!

Red Berries and Green Leaves.

Plants at the bottom of the trees.

Cotton from the Cotton Wood Trees.

A neighboring pine seeking the sun.

A fungus growing on a piece of bark.

A fern being host to something or the other.

I HEART MACRO!

Red, Ivory, Green

I do tend to get "stuck" on shapes, colors, and types of beads when I "torch."
Lately, it's been red, ivory, and green.
Red and green are for obvious reasons.
Re and Ivory,
well,
I just love those colors together!

Here's an organic heart I made using red and ivory.
I added a little silver leaf.
Nummy colors and textures!

How could I write this post without including headpins?
These are headpins that are ready for the holidays!
Christmas is coming!

I love this bead!
I love the colors and the murrini.
I am normally murrini applying impaired,
but, this time,
it worked!
You can find some of my murrini here.

These beads are mini spacers.
They seem to be ready for Christmas, but,
I think someone could use them any time of the year.

Last, but not least,
here's the dragonfly bead!
I love, love, love this one!
I've been working on dragonflies for over a year now.
I am finally PLEASED with this one!


Now, I have a question for you.
When working on a technique for a bead or a piece of jewelry or whatever,
what is the longest time you have worked on a technique to develop it and be happy
with the results?
I'm anxious to hear your answers!
