I've Got The Power

"I've got the Power" is my entry for the Etsy Beadweavers October Challenge. My favorite super hero of all time is Wonder Woman, who is probably the worlds most famous Amazon!! The Wonder Woman show started when I was just a young girl being raised by my true hero, my mother. My sister, cousins, and I used to play wonder woman all the time. We would all put on our bathing suits, and make wrist bands, crowns, and belts out of paper sacks and crayons. The only problem was that we all wanted to be Wonder Woman, so there were never any bad guys....lol. As an adult, I still love her, and look back fondly on all those special times, I had as a child.




Wonder Woman was a great role model for young girls growing up in the 70's and 80's and I dedicate this necklace to all women who have found their own inner beauty and strength.

Nefertiti's Treasure

Nefertiti's Treasure is my entry for the Etsy Beadweavers August challenge, themed "The First Lady of Style". I chose Nefertiti because she was known for her beauty, and there are many mysteries about her life and death. One theory is that she had shared the throne with her husband, the Pharoah, Akhenaten. Another theory was that she became the ruler, and had changed her name to correspond with her higher station. There was thought to her possibly being considered a goddess. One thing is for sure, for a woman in that time period or any time period for that matter, she held great power, and that's ok in my book!!

The "First Ladies of Style" voting begins on August 9th through the 15th at the Etsy Beadweavers Blog. Were counting on your votes.

We have a Winner!!

Congratulations to Dini of Beadazzled of Oregon for taking the win in our very first Market challenge. Here's what Dini had said about her challenge piece. "The challenge is: "A New Horizon" and there is a second challenge to use the color green in some way. So here is what I came up with ~

I loved the colors and the way this bracelet worked out so I used it for the photo when I made my shipping labels for Beadazzled. I mailed a custom order to a great customer in Texas, she saw the bracelet on the shipping label and emailed me: "I can't find this bracelet in any of your shops: I HAVE TO HAVE IT!" I really had to chuckle ~ I was saving it for moi!

So, off it went via Priority mail but the photos stayed at home!"

Dini, We love your work, and we look forward to hearing what the next challenge is going to be!!

So everyone let's hear it for Dini, Congrats girl!!
