Heyo,

I uploaded a few photos of new ideas I'm thinking of trying out at Tribal Fest. I just thought I'd get your feedback before I make a ton of them.

I've always said that if I could be a beachcomber by trade, I'd be happy. I love collecting shells and I've got quite a collection. Big, small, broken, whole. I particularly go for distinctive shapes, colors and textures. So I finally pulled out some of the little one's to see if they could somehow work into bindis. I suppose these would appeal to those who enjoy the sealife theme or who do not like bindis that are too sparkley. Some, I've added bits of sparkle, but there's no need, really.

So, with the shells, I went through my button box and then, encouraged by Medina, I took apart a watch I wasn't ever going to use again. Cool little parts inside, but they are TINY! Next stop, the bead drawers! I'll have to see how these all glue up. Ya never know until the glue comes in. ;}

I thought I'd let you see what I'm working on, as I know many of you can't make it to Tribal Fest. Let me know what you think!

Thanks

P.S. Happy Mommies Day!
