Head's Up!

Well I am so glad that last weeks issues stayed in last week!  LOL  This weekend I have been hanging out with my kids.  My daughter on Saturday, and then my Son on Sunday.  That doesn't always happen like that but this weekend it did and it was awesome to just hang with each kid individually. 

This week over at Every Inchie Monday the theme is "Head".  I had a few trials and errors with this theme.  First off I thought about a head of lettuce, but after designing it, it just looked like a green blob!  Next idea was a bust of a head; which looked like a grey blob!  Then I came up with the idea that finally stuck.  A side view of a head of a nail! 







I used one of my favorite colors of Delica seed beads, the metallic silver.  I also used a gunmetal AB bead as the nail head.   Real simple design but I love the look of it.  Also a cool side note to this is that when the light hits the gunmetal beads it looks like an AB blue color.  Really cool, just sad that it doesn't show well in the pictures.

Don't forget to fly over to EIM and check out all the great artwork.  Have a blessed day everybody and thanks for zooming on by.
