It’s SOUP TIME!!

Looking forward to seeing what my new bead soup partner chooses to send my way ... regardless, I'll be needing a fresh batch of headpins soon!
Sure, it’s “hotter than Hades” outside (according to my 10-year-old and resident mythology experts). But it’s August after all. Should we really expect otherwise? Fortunately, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a great time to step into the Bead Kitchen (bear with me — my brain is slightly overheated and the metaphors are jumping all over the place in my brain).
Thanks to the magnificent Lori Anderson, a lamp work artist extraordinaire and amazingly generously blogger, I’ll be participating soon in my THIRD Bead Soup Challenge. It’s such a great way to push my creative boundaries, and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE exchanging materials with other bead fanatics such as myself.
If you want to know more about the challenges, click on the button on the right. Here’s a link to the other pieces I’ve made in previous challenges (this is a link to the first one, and here’s a link to the second). Lori will be posting a list of all the participants for this round shortly. I can’t wait to see who I’m paired up with. Plus, with all our fun vacations of the summer now wrapping up, the challenge will be a welcome break from all the work that has been piling up around me.
Are you participating? With so many people involved, it would be great if you would leave a comment so I can make sure to follow you, too.




Yep, I’m in the list! Sooo excited! Wow, with over 300 participants, it’s gonna be a wild roller coaster of a hop!
Thank you for linking to your last Bead soup. After reading it, I remember seeing it last time and being envious of the beautiful lampwork bead you got! I can’t wait to see what you get and how you work it this year!
Yes, this will be my second one. Can’t wait.
Can’t wait to see what beauty you create this round! It was an honor to be paired with you for my first serving of soup!
Participating for the first time. Sent out my party pack yesterday!
I’m so glad you joined up!
