I have however never thought about what my beads are doing during the night. Perhaps they have wild brain storm sessions where they come up with cool designs, and then plan how they are going to make me believe that the idea came from myself. Cunning little things ;-). What a great idea for an animated film. The secret world of beads.

I find that they mate up in the nighttime to form intriguing pairs to marry the next day! So I often have bowls of beads and components lying around - no matter how much I try to put them away - and I like to run my fingers through them looking for patterns and shapes and textures and colors. I love that these earrings have such great color values as well as a mix of matte and shiny, faceted and smooth. I like to design with contrasts. Love your thought process, Miss Malin! Enjoy the day.

It always amazes me how some combinations absolutely DON'T work and by just replacing a few elements suddenly they are wonderful again. Most of my earrings have an artisan bead set to jump off from and then it's a matter of finding those other perfect elements to combine. Thanks for asking those probing questions, Malin!Numinosityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13464230956125740370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-533782912333386427.post-12890553438329357962015-09-21T05:40:20.728-07:002015-09-21T05:40:20.728-07:00What a happy combination!

I...I don't usually have a plan when I sit down. I dig around my ridiculously messy table and find something that strikes me. Sometimes when I find that I have an idea of what I have in my stash that might work or sometimes I just continue rummaging around to see if anything grabs my attention. It's all hit and miss for me. Sometimes it works and sometimes not and I may even start all over again from scratch. Most of the time it's fun, sometimes you can do that for awhile and nothing strikes your fancy and you have to get up and walk away for awhile.KristiBowmanDesignhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10015584159659853422noreply@blogger.com
