Time to Vote!

It's that time again when El Reto for April is up and ready to be voted on. The challenge this month was to use some type of faceted bead to create a ring that is an original design.

My design this month was Esmeralda. All of the designs look great and I really encourage you to visit El Reto and vote for your favorite! I know it's in Spanish, but you can click to see the pictures and the voting is in the column to the right. Enjoy!

I gots a Treasury and it's time to vote!!!

I haven't gotten a treasury in a long time, but yesterday I just happened to stumble onto this: It's still cold outside... I hope you like it. It has lots of good beadwork in it!

Also, here's my challenge entry for El Reto on the blog Beads Perles. A group of jewelry artists got together and the challenge was to make something using recycled materials. So, I worked up a bracelet with an old fabric belt that I don't wear anymore and a button that was buried in the deepest recesses of my mother's sewing box. Result? A very Gilligan's Island meets Forever 21.

Here are all the entries for this week: You can click here to vote, and yes, I am shamelessly soliciting votes!
