Well, I really must apologize for my recent lack of posting. I just spent two weeks in the photo studio with two great authors for two very different books. Things get kind of crazy over there, and by the end of the day, I've completely forgotten there is such a thing as the internet!
So without further ado, I give you all the stuff I've missed in the past two weeks:
MacrameByMaja has been at it again! Check out her beautiful creations here! And don't for get to support her by checking out her Etsy shop.
Also showing off some wonderful macrame designs is Asanda Design (Is it a family thing? She's MacrameByMaja' sister!). Check out her gallery here.
Margot Potter has been crafting like a maniac recently. She's just debuted her new Swarovski Elemnets halloween-themed tote bag. It can be used for candy, and it has pretty beads on it! Also, check out the halloween-themed necklace and her TastyLinks from Saturday here.
Emily is a jewelry maker after my own bead stash: She's made this cute Bunco Bracelet. (My mom used to play Bunco with a group of ladies; one of them swore like a sailor. Needless to say, we weren't allowed in the livingroom when they played at my house. Ah, the memories.) Emily has also blogged about craft day with some friends, check out what she made here.
New member chucksstuff1 is hoping to learn about bead crafts. Why? It's part of his business as a bead seller. Oh my, I think everyone may want to be his friend. Stop by and give him a hello!
Finally, Candy, a member of the B+J Team is interested in your favorite beads. She's looking to branch out of her usual color schemes; can you help her with the challenge?
Ok folks, I'm finish for today. I hope I got everyone. But if I didn't, and you want to be included in this Round-Up, blog about your creations, with photos, and send a message to MC Julie.
