We will be playing with Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks and Fragments to create our own unique pendants - at this point, I'm debating a beaded fringe or a beaded necklace to compliment it. I'll post a pic as soon as I'm satisfied with the finished product! We will use bigger seed beads and perhaps some colored thread against white to "see" easier ;-) I am working out the details for this one this week.

It was a learning experience for all. Although I've been beading for several years now - I normally don't bead left-handed and I can see those teeny tiny beads close up. So between switching my brain to left-hand mode and smiling at all those noses pressed up to the table to pick up beads - it was a great time! Yes, several times the beads flew across the table as someone hooked their needle to the felt rather than the beads and someone would cry out when their thread came off the needle ..... at the end - they all left having created their own pendants and feeling good!
