This will be my first Octoberfest hop...I'm looking forward to creating something special here.

8th Annual BSBP...let me just say right now, thank you to everyone who visits my blog. Although I haven't left comments on all of the blogs I've hopped to.  I have enjoyed hopping and the designs are fabulous! Someone said the best form of flattery is to maybe not "copy" but copy with my own touch. I don't know the rules on this  deed si if it's not allowed please let me know.. Thanks again for hopping here at FMD, Marde

It's finally here!! My partner, Mary Ellen, sent me a smorgasbord of beadiful beads! Wouldn't you know it, just hours before the reveal I think of another design I want to make. I started it but can't finish in time.  So without further ado, this is what I came up with for my first reveal. I used the various sizes of the Brown Jasper beads and the small oval turquoise beads along with goldstone spacers.

Here's the second set from my soup!

Here are the beads that I have for this blog hop. I'm excited to see what I can do with these beads
