Bead Journal Project


It is a steamy South Florida August Sunday already in the 90's before noon time. I am busy getting my studio organized again before I leave for Philly to be with my private student for a few days.


I thought I should admit that I am stuck on my June page for the Journal project. I looked at it several days ago and decided that it needed more texture and depth of color development so I got out my beads befitting it's colorway and am into size 15's with great delight. I think of June in my minds eye as I remember it being a New Englander experiencing Spring in the North East 20 miles North of Manhattan where I used to live in Nyack, New York. I hate to stop working on my June page in order to fill pattern orders and kits. In this way I am such a school kid hating to do my homework and procrastinating by working on my hearts desire.


I have July's page unfinished because I am so compelled to renew my work on June which I think is so important to me as it is the starting page for Robin's Bead Journal Project 2007.


I have not started August but I do know the colors I will use.

Bead Journal Project 2007

Here it is already with July gone to quickly. I live in South Florida where summer seems to be ever present.
I have had some hiccups with receiving information from the BJP Blog and Robin has been tremendously helpful in getting it sorted out.
I will post my June and July Journal pages as soon as I get July finished with.
I am going to usie fabric pages throughout and will use mixed media often. Some pages will likely have only a small bit of bead work on a fabric background and others will be highly developed. So many thoughts and images whirring around in my mind.
This is an exciting project and I am delighted to be a part of it.
