Maybe it's because it is such critter-filled summer, what with all the happy butterflies, bees, dragonflies, squirrels, birds, stray cats, etc. filling our back acres, but that's what happened to inspire my latest beading projects. Found a gorgeous butterfly focal that looked art-deco-ish, so added some onyx beads to it, and made--"Art Deco Wings" for a special sister-in-law. Then saw a picture in firemountaingems.com of a creation made with glass spun squirrels and birds, so adapted that to put together my own version of "They Live in Trees", and gave that to darling daughter while we vacationed in Maine. She loves squirrels. To me, they are cute, but annoying pests with our bird feeders--I think the blown glass squirrels are much easier to handle!
