Bead Table Wednesday - A Fairytale/spring bead swap gift.

Hello dear friends,

As today is Wednesday it is Bead Table day...

As a lot of you would know, Bead Table Wednesday is when we display photos of beads we are currently  working with....( please click on the btw icon on the blog side bar to take you to see other participants' photos)


I recently received a lovely package of beads from Erin Prais-Hintz at tesori trovati jewelry.
Erin is a wonderful jewelry designer who creates one-of-a-kind pieces using anything from copper, sari silk and gemstones, to her own line of gorgeous 'simple truth' pendants and charms. I am thrilled with all the elements she sent to me and only hope I can do them justice!

The reason for this little package, is that we are paired up in an exchange, organised by Lori Anderson.
This time around the swap is a Fairytale/spring theme.

Anyway, here are the lovely pieces Erin sent to me, and they are what is on my bead table today...


Lovely card and package.

Simple Truths connector - 'leap'

Lucite flowers, fluorite nuggets, swarovski crystals
and a sweet little jade frog from Thailand.

Ceramic focal from Lisa Peters

Green goldstone and 'bling'

An assortment of Vintage/Nunn designs.

Am I a lucky girl or what!!? There is far more here than I will use on this project, thank-you Erin for your generosity.

And now to get moving on it.... a mixture of "Secret garden meeting the frog prince" said Erin.

 The blog reveal will be on June 4th.

Have a good day,

    Oh! I am so glad that you like what I sent you. I can't wait to see how you interpret this swap. I have to get busy on mine! I think that I saw the reveal date is June 4th, but I could be mistaken.
    Enjoy the day, Jenni!
