Bead Soup has arrived

                                                Fall tone soup mix
I received the Bead Soup mix from my partner Nicole Valentine, there are 2 different color sets,  a lovely springy soup of green and blue, the other, a beautiful autumn color combination of browns, greens and beige. All the components , except the clasp, were made by Nicole, she is one talented lady. The clasp, at the bottom of the photo, is a wonderful silver pear shaped toggle. Nicole also included some fun penny charms, that she also makes , which are made from Canadian one cent pieces, an extra bonus is the reverse side has coppery maple leaves.

That is some yummy looking soup. I can't wait to see what you do with it. I for one would like to see more of your jewelry. I really like what I have seen.

I love her pennies -- she sent me some and I adore them. Looking forward to March 3rd!

TWO soups!!? :)
Both mixes are really great and I'm anticipating the reveal more and more with each soup I see. There is sure to be some exciting jewelry in this go-round. Yours will definitely be beautiful!
