A Little Time for Jewelry - That and a Preview!

This is the necklace I made to honor my daughter who has a blood cancer called

multiple myeloma.

I love this necklace, and I wear it almost everyday.

Jenny can't wear jewelry in the transplant ward,

but I don't think she'd want to with the way she has been feeling anyway.

I made all the glass beads.

This red is Lauscha transparent red medium.

It's my favorite red.

It's also the color that reminded me of healthy red blood cells.

Lori Anderson, of 

Pretty Things,

suggested making a bracelet to remember this event.

Since her suggestion,

I have been looking for found objects to make a charm bracelet.

I have not been very successful with that endeavor.

To date, I have found.......

NONE.

I probably just need to think out of the box more, 

but,

my brain being what it is right now,

just doesn't want to go there!

So,

for now,

exit found objects

enter, again,

needle felting.

Here's a preview.

I have an idea, but, whether or not I can make it work,

well, we'll just have to see.

Check back later.

We both might be surprised!

When I was a teacher and attended the mandatory workshops, we were always given tests on learning styles to make us more aware of the need to teach to the student rather than to the test. When I was tested, I always tested Random/Random. What did that mean? I'm very creative, but I have to make changes to keep from getting bored. You know that kid that daydreams a lot? Yes, it's me! Random/Random.
Here's what I've been making.

I sure learn a lot with that learning style! It's fun!
