Some new Wire, Seed Beading, and a new dog!

A friend bought a lapis cab and asked me to wire wrap it for her. She just wanted something simple and not too fru fru:

I was teaching my DD how to bead a small cab and made these earrings:

I LOVE these. (DD hasn't finished hers.) A cube bracelet from a recent B&B which was quick and fun:

I'd been dying to try these lattice earrings and Linda was so kind to send me some bugles. The pattern (B&B Oct. 2003) calls for 3mm, but these worked just fine. The purple pair doesn't photograph well because the iris beads have a lot of purple in them, but you can't tell:

and my 13 yr. old made herself some (with absolutely no help from me!) for July 4th:

Lastly, my sweet Willy dog got adopted by a wonderful family. They're bringing him back for a visit next week, but I've talked to them several times, did two home visits, and I know they absoultely adore him:

Now I have a chihuahua (or as my Yankee hubby says, "ChiWOWwuh." Lol.) named Caesar. He belonged to an old man who passed away and the police called a rescue group rather than turning him over to Animal Control. I've never been a big Chi fan, but this guy is turning out to be a lot of fun:

He's definitely got a big personality packed in that little body! He's also a great walking buddy and can keep up with Spike. I usually walk 2-3 miles a day, and this guy keeps up with no problem. Ok, did I give you enough to look at?

Glad they worked out for you. After seeing yours, I have to make some for me.

Do I need to send you your bugles back? :)

That's what everyone says. He's pretty cute and not nearly as obnoxious and most chihuahuas I've met!

Wow, everytime I look at your new work, I think, what's the matter with me? I'm accomplishing next to nothing! LOL I'm almost through with remaking a gold seed bead bracelet though... and started another with a fimo fishy bead and lapiz just for fun. But I'm trying to sell all this polymer clay and have boxes of bricks everywhere! LOL

Your doggies are wonderful and I admire you for taking such good care of them. The ChiWOWah, LOL I love that spelling, looks adorable and I usually am not wild about that kind of doggie either. My office mate just lost her shepherd Max at 12 years, but the day before he died, she got an australian shepherd pup named chloe, who is an absolute doll, blue eyed and shaggy.

All I have at present is one flop earred blue-eyed cat named Feisty. He had a hematoma in the ear, had to have surgery, and now one ear is at half mast! He's a brat too! LOLOLOLOLOL

Lol. Yeah, I looked at that picture and thought it was too pink, but then realized part of it was him!

Thanks, Karleen!

Yep, they should be brats, or at least a little spoiled! Feisty is a great name, and I can picture him with the ear at half mast.

I left that cube bracelet part done on my work desk before I dashed away for a weeks holiday. Been with friends on their cabin cruiser on the Norfolk Broads. Got back about 2 hours ago and now catching up. Shirley
