| Welcome to my 2007 Bead Journal
November 2007
|
I am thankful...
November is the month of Thanksgiving and I wanted to remember the things I'm grateful for:
- The love of my family and friends (the heart), especially my mother (Cloisonne bead from a necklace of hers) who taught me so much and encouraged me in what I wanted to do and gave me art lessons when I was young
- The Beauty of nature, both animals (dragonfly) and plants (the flower)
- The warmth of the sun (sun charm) - I love to be outside when it's warm and I can feel the power of the sun being absorbed into my body
- The Spiritual guidance of Kadampa Buddhism (6-pointed star) that has come into my life
- My natural ability in computers (resisters - those striped things by the heart) that allowed me to have a career in something that I truly enjoyed and excelled in
- My artistic ability (the whole piece)
- My finding Robin Atkins work (the ring bead) to inspire me into working with bead embroidery
