Hi Jelveh,
You have been a busy gal! I have also with my daughter having shoulder surgery...taking her back and forth to work and therapy, switching off and on with her hubby. I think my fav colors have to be the blues. They are all so peaceful and calming to me. Maybe it's that they remind me of water flowing and changing color as it travels over rocks, or gets darker the farther from the shores. I've always had a thing for water and all the different colors of it.
Peace and love,
Brenda
Jelveh,
What a stunning bead this weeks giveaway is....just love the rich blue!!
Sounds like you have had a great family week. Nothing like celebrating with family. I don't have brothers and sisters to share with, but our children are grown and have families and to me a day with all of them is just perfect!!
As for colors of beads...just love combinations of purple/Turq/lime and turq/ivory/black. As for fall colors I love purple/plum with olive green.
Hope you have another great week!

Jelveh,
Of course, I love the blues and this weeks bead is superb! I just finished a bracelet today using some Jelveh blue beads and can't wait to see others reaction to it. I have entered a craft show in August, it will probably fly off my table.
All the best,
Sue

Hi Lovely Lady. My fav colours are Aqua Blue, such a bright and happy colour, purple beautifl and stong colour and combining pale blue and brown. I LOVE the new beads the ribbon beads are stunning and the Navajo rug beads are awsome. Your weeks sounds like it has been great fun. We are birthday heavy around Christmas time, so we miss the pool patires but gain the fairy lights :)

Gorgeous as ever! Talk about eye candy! The gold really accentuates the blue.

Hi Jelveh:
I am recovering from a mini vacation with my two daughters and two of my grandchildren. Had a great time but I do need some at home time now.
The colors in your give away bead are beautiful! The gold leaf reminds me of the tiny gold pieces we found when we went panning for gold.
