Bead Hoarders Unite! ....for the Bead Hoarders Blog Hop...

http://tinyurl.com/mkup7ea

I'm looking forward to the next several Sundays (as that is when I do most of my beading)...to looking through my stash to see what I can come up with for this blog hop! :)
There are 165 other beaders, besides me :) that 'hoard' their beads too! Wow!...and am sure that not everyone who wanted to participate was able to either...which is a bummer for them, but as Lori said, this will become an annual event...so will see what happens next year...and I think that is a wonderful idea! Thanks Lori! :)

Reveal Date:  Wednesday, July 10th, 2013

There are 35 participants, including Sally Rissick our hostess. 

I've included 3 close ups here so that you can see the features better...! :)

 

Here is my finished piece. I used silver accent seed beads and a silver toggle clasp to go with the black and white. I'm quite pleased with the results! :)
Thanks Sally, for allowing me to participate in such a fun enterprise... enjoyed the challenge a great deal!
