Bead Soup has Arrived!!

I happy to introduce my "Bead Soup" partner, Loretta Carstensen and show you the "Soup" I received.

First a little about my partner-

Loretta recently moved from Palm Springs, Ca. to South Ogden, Utah to be closer to her family. Loretta is a retired Insurance Agent.  Since her retirement, she volunteers at the local hospital.  She also has a travel trailer and enjoys traveling with her husband.

She likes creating all kinds of jewelry and makes a lot of her own beads and pendants from polymer clay. Loretta said she was buying a lot of polymer beads and decided she wanted to try making them so, she bought a book and taught herself.

I hope you will visit Loretta on her blog, designsbyloretta.blogspot.com to see her creations and learn more about her.

Now for the soup-

Excited to receive this package from Loretta!


Couldn't wait to see what was in it-
Loretta didn't know what the stone is...any ideas?  
The large red beads are glass African trade beads 
and the small red ones are jasper.
I'm going to let the "soup" simmer for a while and on 
May 3rd I'll show you what it became.
