I've been playing around this week, experimenting some. I wanted to try a
lentil tree. This is big, about 28mm:

Then I wanted to try it melted in, thinking I might like one for a
bracelet,
and melted in, it could take a lot of abuse. I did the first one, and
thought it was a little dark. I did the 2nd one, and then remembered if
it
was for a bracelet, the hole needed to be horizontal:

The I tried another bigger, melted tree:

I have some friends coming to town on their way to Wm. Holland School this
weekend. My friend's neice is taking Bead Stringing, so I made a bead in
her favorite colors, so she could use it in a project:

I've had a lot of fun making the faux turquoise. DD and I like to look at
them afterwards, to see what we see in them whether it's an alligator or a
humming bird.................. DD looked as this one and said, "I see a
gorilla paddling a canoe!.....................................And he's
wearing a bra!"

Lol. That's what I thought, but I'm not sure DD knows who Madonna is. And
she wouldn't know what she looked like in the 80's!

Lovely, Jerri!

Thanks Cheryl! It's funny how you do something and then don't do another
one for a few years, and all of a sudden you love them again.


Hmm - maybe I should go back to stuff I did years ago????
I'm really bored of making chocolates ... but the orders keep coming in - so I
suppose I should NOT complain....

I'd like to do some wild color experiments this weekend... if I get time.

Jerri,
I love the first one, think the textures look great in tree beads, for
obvious reasons.

I love the trees melted in! They're stunning. Oh, and I saw the gorilla
right away, LOL!
