Hello lovely ABS-ers! I don’t know about you, but Spring has truly sprung these past few days here in Edinburgh. Yesterday I had a perfectly gorgeous spring-y day – a walk on Portobello beach with a friend’s doggie, splashing about in the waves and drinking lots of cups of tea. All that was missing was beads and it would have been perfect!
So here are a few perfectly gorgeous Spring-y beads for you this week – more beautiful birds and butterflies to inspire you:
ABS’s newest team member – Anne of Gardanne Beads!
I’ve got a whole new bounty of beads in at The Curious Bead Shop, including this beautiful glass peacock button.
Have a great week everyone! I hope you’re able to get out and enjoy yourselves – and have some fun with art beads too!
