the words i'm most interested in are renew, transfigure, and to turn over a new leaf. to change in character. to metamorphosize. exciting! and i've begun this year with a redo of my room. it is the basement of my mother's house, so i have the whole floor. i'm going to clean it up and turn half of it into a studio for my beading, polymer clay, and metalsmithing. i'm soooo excited! it's a lot of work. i'm a bit of a hoarder and i've basically just let it go, but i really want this, so i'm totally dedicated to it.  wish me luck!

 

and now onto some eye candy. here's a piece i did for the last BeadSoupBlogParty. Sign-ups for the latest one just happened over the weekend and i'm really hoping i get in. keeping my fingers crossed!

 

hope this year is filled with beautiful things for you and your families! happy beading!
