Autumn (why do they call it "Fall"?)










Here's the first of my new freeform pieces.... This was created for a contest at Mama's Minerals...
...our local rock, fossil and bead shop. They have wonderfully unusual finds.

They are hosting their contest under the theme, STRANDS... there are two categories... Single Strand (Fall colors) and a Multi Strand (also Fall colors)...15 entries in each category were juried in and will be voted on by the public from Sept 14-Oct 14. Winner of the multi strand (which I was juried into) wins a $200 gift certificate at their store..hmmm I could do a lot of damage with that! I was fortunate to win their first two contests two years ago. Since then I've not entered. Here is my entry...entitled "Katmandu Sunrise"...freeform beadwork, composed of Jasper,Coral, Agate,Pearls, Brass,Bronzite,Sea Glass, Jade and more..it was a fun piece to work on ...and I hope that many people go in and vote, no matter whom they vote for...okay yes..vote for ME vote for ME!! I'm sure there are many incredible entries...and I can't wait to see them all...I'm always inspired in the way others use particular beads.


Sooooooo..once again I ask....why do they call it "Fall" anyway?
