Blue Bead Challenge

So, I've been thinking about how to start tackling my bead stash. I'm a seed bead lover at heart, so in some ways, although I have a large selection of beads to choose from whenever I want to start a new project, my stash doesn't take up a huge amount of room in the house. And, so, I never feel guilty about buying more beads and stashing them away until I have time to sit down and create.

But....my bead box is starting to get a little full and before I know it I won't be able to fit the lid on. I had best start teackling my bead stash!

Yesterday, I decided that I'd like a summer necklace that will work well with my summer 'uniforms' of navy, linen trousers and a white shirt, or jeans, tank top and jacket.

Blue Challenge

I had a good old rummage in my bead box and came up with two tubes of seed beads in aqua/teal and fourteen teal glass beads left over from my Wire Wrapped Daisy Bracelet Tutorial.

I'll be back at the end of the month to show you what I've made. The challenge is on!
