Amuse Your Muse Monday with Rebecca of Songbead

December 2, 2013

Pinch, punch, ~~first~~ second of the month….happy December everyone! I love this month, even with it’s cold, wet weather and extreme busy-ness – there are twinkling lights, festivities, mulled wine and mince pies – what more could you want from this time of year?

If your answer to that was ‘beads please!’ then never fear, I have rounded up some beautiful handmade snow and icy beads for your perusal 🙂 Leave your links in the comments below for any others you come across this week – I’d love to see your finds! And if you’ve already stocked up on icy beads, then do please share links to the jewellery you’ve created with them. We’d love to see!
